Scouting Report
Owns a projectable, 6-3 frame plus the ability to pitch as either a starter and reliever at the minor-league level. Can also strike a lot of batters out at lower levels. Needs to become a more consistent pitcher in order to maximize output in the big leagues. Also needs to cut down on his number of walks to survive in MLB.
Long Range Potential: Versatile right-hander with a little upside.
