Scouting Report
Had the ability to strike batters out, and he was calm, cool and collected on the hill. Could be lethal against left-handed batters when on top of his game. Injuries were an issue with him throughout virtually his entire career, and he rarely proved capable of staying healthy (so he never fully maximized his output as a starting pitcher).
Long Range Potential: Talented left-hander, when healthy.
