Scouting Report
Owned a massive frame (6'10", 260 pounds), so his mere presence on the bump was intimidating to hitters. Was usually a consistent strike thrower. Ran into all kinds of trouble when he lost the strike zone, so control was always of primordial importance to him. Also, he was a bit too hittable at times.
Long Range Potential: Mammoth right-hander.
