His fastball is explosive (he can crank it up to close to triple-digits), but it also has great movement, which makes it almost unhittable. Also owns a swing-and-miss curve. Is also plenty deceptive. Knows how to pitch in the late innings and deals with the pressure well. Lacks stamina at the big-league level. Also, his changeup is a decent third pitch (but perhaps not good enough for him to be used in any other role than short relief). Injuries are a major concern here, as he has not been able to stay on the field for long stretches of his MLB career.

Long Range Potential: Talented reliever (when healthy).
