Scouting Report

Assets
  • Keeps his infielders busy by keeping the ball low in the zone, which induces a lot of groundball outs. Has a very resilient arm.
Flaws
  • Needs to work on pitching from the stretch, since he tends to struggle with men on base. Doesn't have the arsenal to dominate batters.
Career Potential
  • Veteran situational lefty.
  • Awards
