Scouting Report

Assets
  • Yan has a wicked, high-90s fastball that moves. Also, he consistently retires hitters from both sides of the plate equally well.
Flaws
  • He has a habit of letting his emotions get the best of him, which throws off his control. When this happens, he starts walking batters and gets hit all over the place. He's very susceptible to the longball and needs a few days' rest to be most effective.
Career Potential
  • Mediocre mid-late reliever.
