Scouting Report

Assets
  • Boasts a mid-90's fastball, along with a solid sinker, slider and splitter. Induces a myriad of groundballs against hitters from both sides of the plate.
Flaws
  • Needs to work better from the stretch. Isn't a great strikeout pitcher and tends to get hit hard whenever his command is a little off.
Career Potential
  • A quality No. 2 starter.
