Scouting Report
Had an ideal pitchers' frame (6-6, 225 pounds). Threw a lot of strikes and usually displayed good command of his arsenal of pitches. Could also be quite versatile, pitching either as a starter or reliever in MLB. Left his pitches up in the zone on occasion (and paid for it). His fastball was a bit too straight sometimes. Left-handed hitters had success against him.
Long Range Potential: Versatile right-hander.
