Scouting Report

AssetsIs good at pitching to contact and displays impressive command of his arsenal. Has an ideal pitchers' frame. Can also get a big strikeout in tight spots.
FlawsIsn't a true strikeout pitcher, so he gives up a few too many hits and serves up a few too many long balls. Needs to put away hitters earlier in the count.
Career potentialDecent starter.
