Scouting Report

AssetsOwns an ideal pitchers' frame (6-4, 200 pounds), a very good fastball and solid change-up. Also displays the potential for a very effective curve (which may become a terrific out-pitch in contrast to his heater).
FlawsIs quite raw, so he will need to work on the finer points of pitching in order to maximize his big-league upside. Also, he needs to refine his curve, which has a tendency to hang up in the strike zone.
Career potentialTalented right-hander with upside.
