Scouting Report

AssetsIs highly intelligent, both on and off the field, and uses those smarts to pitch around hitters. His cut fastball can be an effective out pitch.
FlawsHas a tendency to nibble a tad too much when on the mound. At his worst, he leaves the ball up in the strike zone and gets tattooed.
Career potentialVersatile, savvy veteran right-hander.
