Scouting Report
Excelled against left-handed batters. Had good zip on his fastball. Also mixed in a curve and changeup that made him effective against right-handed hitters. His insistence on relying on high fastballs could blow up in his face if his command was off. Could not log a lot of innings later in his career. Also struggled to hold runners on base.
Long Range Potential: Savvy late-inning left-hander.
