Scouting Report
Could be overpowering with his good stuff and the makeup for a late-inning relief role. Was at his best when he was limited to one inning of work, so he held nothing back. Did have a few brain cramps from time to time, in terms of pitch location, which led to bad innings against him. Was usually exposed if on the mound for too long in an outing.
Long Range Potential: Solid late-inning reliever.
