Scouting Report

Assets
  • A deceptively dominant strikeout pitcher, he mixes a sneaky-good fastball and great curve to keep hitters off-balance. Is both tenacious and consistent.
Flaws
  • Can sometimes fall into mini-slumps, despite his penchant for dominating on the mound. Endurance and durability have also been issues.
Career Potential
  • An ace with Cy Young-level talent.
