Scouting Report
When on top of his game, he can induce a lot of groundballs. Is also a versatile right-hander who can be used in a variety of roles--which adds to his value. Can be prone to bouts of wildness. Does not have an ideal pitchers' frame, and at times needs to keep his weight in check. Can be too hittable at times.
Long Range Potential: Versatile journeyman right-hander.
