Scouting Report
Owns an ideal pitchers' frame (6-5, 225 pounds). Creates a lot of deception in his delivery and his fastball displays excellent movement most of the time, which make him very hard to hit against. His slider, curve and changeup all need more work, which is why he was incapable of remaining a starting pitcher. Also, he gets into major trouble when he starts walking too many hitters.
Long Range Potential: Big, inconsistent left-hander with a little upside.
