Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is a true work horse who hates to lose, and displays his emotions on his sleeve--which can fire up his teammates. Throw hard and is deceptive because he pitches at various arm angles. His slider can be a great out pitch.
Flaws
  • Command is his one consistent flaw, which can lead to big innings against him. Throwing from different angles gets him into trouble when his mechanics aren't right. Has trouble controlling his emotions.
Career Potential
  • Work horse starter with ace ability.
