Scouting Report

Assets
  • With a good fastball and a dominant curve as his out-pitch, he is a prototypical closer. Is gritty in late-inning situations and tough on righties.
Flaws
  • Occasionally has lapses in his control, and as a result gets burned when he doesn't pitch ahead in the count. Has lost a little zip on his fastball.
Career Potential
  • Quality short reliever.
