Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a great competitor. Has good command and usually keeps the ball down in the strike zone. Attacks left-handed and right-handed hitters equally well.
Flaws
  • Injuries have set him back, as he's not as good as during his time with the Oakland Athletics. His margin for error has become virtually non-existent.
Career Potential
  • A solid mid-rotation starter, when healthy.
