Scouting Report

Assets
  • Can throw a quality sinker in the low 90s to get groundball outs. He also has the heat to rack up impressive strikeout numbers.
Flaws
  • It's so early in his career and he's already been hobbled by injuries for most of it. On the mound, command has been a problem.
Career Potential
  • A solid .500 starter.
