Scouting Report

AssetsOwns an ideal pitchers' frame and a big arm, capable of striking out plenty of batters due to electric stuff. Can close out games in the minor leagues.
FlawsInjuries have been a big factor in his development, so far. As a result, he can get a little wild with his pitches from time to time. Lacks consistency, too.
