Scouting Report

Assets
  • A gritty pitcher with a sneaky delivery, the southpaw boasts good command of low-90's heat, as well as a decent curve ball and change-up.
Flaws
  • Gets punished more the harder he throws because he needs to mix his pitches and change speeds constantly to be at his most effective.
Career Potential
  • A solid back-of-the-rotation starter.
