Scouting Report

Assets	Has been used as both a starter and reliever but appears to have found his niche pitching out of the bullpen. Displays some strikeout ability.
Flaws	Is a little undersized for a pitcher and lacks the stamina needed to start. Needs to do a better job of keeping the ball in the yard.
Career potential	Depth reliever.
