Scouting Report

AssetsUses an excellent curveball to rack up plenty of strikeouts at lower levels. Has also proven capable of closing out ball games in the minors. Is aggressive on the hill.
FlawsLacks ideal size, so he battles stamina and durability issues. In fact, injuries have somewhat curbed expectations here. Doesn't repeat his delivery consistently.
Career potentialMiddle reliever.
