Scouting Report

Assets
  • Uses a funky, sidearm delivery to deceive hitters. Has a darting fastball and wicked slider. Righty hitters have a lot of trouble making contact off him.
Flaws
  • Left-handed hitters see his delivery a lot better, so they therefore make more consistent contact against him. It prevents him from being a closer candidate.
Career Potential
  • A valuable setup man.
