Scouting Report
Had an electric arm. Could dominate hitters with an upper-90's fastball and a very good slider. Showed the ability to excel in a variety of relief roles. Chose power over finesse too often, which led to wildness and mechanical problems. Could get rattled in the ninth inning. Had a fragile frame.
Long Range Potential: Solid late-inning reliever.
