Scouting Report
Had the ability to strike a lot of batters out. Displayed poise and clutch ability in relief, with a shutdown mentality. Kept the ball in the park. Did not always keep his walks total low, and was rather wild from time to time. His wildness could linger for very long stretches, so he was not always reliable.
Long Range Potential: Solid reliever.
