Scouting Report
Durable, he throws a knuckleball that has extended his career. Is always willing to log a ton of innings, which helps a pitching staff tremendously. Can be dominant when on his game. Like most knuckleballers, he can lack command of the pitch at times. Serves up too many home runs, so using him in crucial situations is always a very risky proposition.
Long Range Potential: Veteran, innings-eating knuckleballer.
