Scouting Report

AssetsHas a great pitchers' frame and impressive strikeout ability, especially due to a good fastball and impressive slow curve. Can dominate on the hill.
FlawsWhen he gets into trouble, it's because he loses control of the strike zone and thus walks too many batters. Needs to display more consistency.
Career potentialOutstanding left-handed starter.
