Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a confident, if not flashy, pitcher. He throws low-90's heat, along with a slider, curve and change--all of which are nasty against right-handed hitters.
Flaws
  • Left-handed hitters still give him a lot of trouble. Overall, he doesn't get ahead in the count often enough, and needs a little rest to be effective.
Career Potential
  • A solid middle reliever.
