Scouting Report

Assets
  • When healthy, he remains one of baseball's most dominant hurlers. His incredible reach and overpowering heater and slider overmatch most hitters.
Flaws
  • As time goes by, durability becomes an ever-present issue with him. Can be stubborn when he doesn't have his best stuff, and therefore gets hit hard.
Career Potential
  • A future Hall-of-Fame left-hander.
