Scouting Report

Assets
  • Unlike earlier in his career, White goes with the heat more these days. Mixing in sliders, curveballs and forkballs, he keeps hitters off balance.
Flaws
  • White must improve his command of the strike zone. Lefties beat him up, not just hitting him but crushing him.
Career Potential
  • Mediocre middle reliever.
