Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a live arm that is best suited for pitching out of the bullpen, since he can crank it up without holding anything back.
Flaws
  • Has control issues that he needs to curb in order to become a quality big-league reliever. Tends to become too predictable on the mound.
Career Potential
  • A capable middle reliever.
