Scouting Report

AssetsOwns an ideal pitchers' frame (6-5, 235 pounds), pinpoint control of his repertoire of pitches and pitching savvy. Commands his fastball particularly well.
FlawsDoesn't have a true out-pitch, so strikeouts aren't a huge part of his game. Tends to elevate his pitches, which leads to too many home runs allowed.
