Bassitt (4-3) picked up the win Friday against the Tigers, allowing three runs on six hits and no walks with four strikeouts across 4.1 innings.

Bassitt (3-2) earned the win against the Athletics on Sunday, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with six strikeouts over six innings.

Scouting Report

Is a late-blooming starter (and also a reliever) with plenty of innings left in his arm, since he was a college closer. Is a fiery competitor with a four-pitch repertoire and the ability to step up in clutch situations. His pitches, aside from a good fastball, are not great. Therefore, he might not have enough weapons to get MLB batters out with regularity as a starter. Also, walks can be a problem for him, as can injuries.

Long Range Potential: Versatile right-hander, when healthy.
