Scouting Report

Assets	Is capable of both starting and relieving, depending on team need. Can be used in long stretches and on consecutive days.
Flaws	Is too hittable for the big leagues and lacks a true strikeout pitch, so he is too often pitching in and out of trouble.
Career potential	Versatile right-hander.
