Scouting Report
Challenged hitters with a low-90's fastball and a tight curve, and had the ability to strike batters out regularly. Could be used in any role on a pitching staff. Brought the mental toughness to bear down with runners on. Stamina was always in question when he served as a starting pitcher; he was rarely able to last beyond the sixth inning. Gave up more than his share of homers. Also had control and command issues during a season.
Long Range Potential: Serviceable, versatile pitcher.
