Scouting Report
Had pinpoint control and an ability to throw plenty of first-pitch strikes. He also was an innings-eater with a winning attitude and leadership qualities. His diminutive stature started to take its toll later on in his career and he was not as dominant as in his earlier days. Also gave up a few too many hits, overall.
Long Range Potential: Savvy workhorse starting pitcher.
