Scouting Report

Assets
  • A good control pitcher. Uses several fastballs well, and a curve that is more of a cutter. Keeps the ball around the plate and knows how to get people out.
Flaws
  • Has a slight build that makes him a bit of a wear-and-tear risk.
Career Potential
  • Solid middle-of-rotation control pitcher.
