Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is aggressive and intimidating with a high-90s fastball and nasty curveball. He's really tough on right-handed hitters. Can start in a pinch, as well as pitch out of the 'pen.
Flaws
  • Needs to improve his control to be more successful. Struggles against left-handed hitters. As a starter, he lacks the endurance and pitching repertoire needed to go deep in games.
Career Potential
  • Versatile right-hander with good stuff.
  • Awards
