Scouting Report

Assets
  • Not boasting a big fastball, Halama relies on his location and late movement. His control, especially to the outside corners reminds some of Tom Glavine. Also, he has one of the better pickoff moves to first in the entire majors.
Flaws
  • The southpaw has a horrible time pitching to left-handed hitters. When used as a starter, he tires in the second half.
Career Potential
  • Solid middle reliever/spot-starter, but fading.
