Scouting Report

Assets
  • Backs up a mid-90s fastball with a deep arsenal, including a good slider and solid change-up. Is relaxed in tight spots and is capable of getting out of jams consistently.
Flaws
  • He's become a walking hospital ward, which threatens to limit a promising career. Doesn't get ahead in the count enough, creating high pitch counts. Lacks stamina as a result.
Career Potential
  • Righty with strikeout acumen, but also with health and stamina issues.
  • Awards
