Scouting Report
Had an ideal pitcher's body and the weaponry to dominate on the bump. Was also an outstanding athlete who fielded his position with aplomb. Could rack up impressive strikeout totals. Lacked a little command, and surrendered too many long balls whenever it eluded him. Injuries and a lack of endurance led to a switch to the bullpen towards the end of his career.
Long Range Potential: Quality left-hander (when healthy).
