Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a low-90's heater with good movement. Also, he knows how to pitch in big spots in the late innings when the game is on the line.
Flaws
  • Gets walloped with taters because he keeps the ball up in the zone too much. Doesn't dominate left-handed hitters well enough.
Career Potential
  • Back-of-the-rotation starter or long reliever.
