Scouting Report
Has a very lively arm, thanks to a lanky frame that generates very good action. Owns a very good fastball, plus a solid slider and good curve. Displays a lot of presence on the mound, and has a tendency to pitch well in high-pressure situations. Lacks strength and stamina, so he needs to add more bulk in order to maximize output in MLB. Injuries are also a factor here.
Long Range Potential: Talented right-hander with upside, when healthy.
