Scouting Report
Had a strong arsenal, including a slider, changeup and mid-90's fastball. Also had intimidating size on the mound and good makeup. Could rack up innings and strikeouts in the big leagues. Injuries were a major issue here, and ultimately forced him out of the game. Could get into trouble when he lost focus. Had location issues, which could force him to give into batters.
Long Range Potential: Solid right-hander, when healthy.
