Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has good command over a high-80s fastball and a strong change-up. Pitches well into the later innings.
Flaws
  • Doesn't have much beyond the above arsenal, so the command and change-up have to be almost perfect.
Career Potential
  • Back-of-the-rotation starter or long reliever.
