Scouting Report

Assets
  • Converted from catcher/outfielder in 2003, he throws hard with movement and has a good change-up. For a righty, he's effective against left-handed hitters.
Flaws
  • Command is the biggest thorn in his side. Big-league hitters have taken him deep far too often.
Career Potential
  • Best off as a late-reliever.
