Scouting Report

Assets
  • Owns blazing, high-90's heat and he usually had good command in the minors. Adds a strong curve and a change-up. Already has a closer's mindset.
Flaws
  • Only became a full-time pitcher in mid-2003, so his lack of experience often comes into play. Command has been a problem in the big leagues.
Career Potential
  • A solid setup man.
