Scouting Report
Owns a very deceptive delivery, which makes him quite successful on the mound. Has a very live arm and can throw strikes consistently when on his game. Displays the ability to dominate batters. Needs to keep the ball down in the strike zone more regularly for success in the big leagues. Doesn't own an ideal pitchers' frame (5-11, 190 pounds), so endurance can also be an issue going forward.
Long Range Potential: Quirky, quality reliever.
