Scouting Report

Assets
  • Floyd's solid stuff is highlighted by a strong curveball, good change, and a low-mid-90s heat. He's pretty good at keeping the ball around the plate.
Flaws
  • Still needs work on the finer points of pitching. Can leave the ball over the plate too much and get hammered. Gives up too many hits.
Career Potential
  • Top of rotation stuff but needs to keep working on command.
