Scouting Report

Assets
  • The big kid wields a devastating slider, which he uses as his No. 1 pitch. His sinking fastball gets into the low 90's and he can be tough in the clutch.
Flaws
  • Command is occasionally an issue, but the biggest concern is that his delivery has brought on injury problems. Right-handed hitters smack him around.
Career Potential
  • An inconsistent reliever with setup ability.
