Scouting Report
Boasts an incredibly live arm and tremendous pure stuff. His fastball has both great velocity and impressive movement, while his changeup can be a devastating weapon. Does not have ideal size for a starting pitcher in MLB and has already seen his development stumped due to injury. So, durability questions remain. Needs to work more on his curve.
Long Range Potential: Talented, athletic but fragile right-hander with good upside.
