Scouting Report
Had a fantastic changeup that made his darting fastball a lot harder to pick up (and hit). Also owned a good curve ball. Was quite confident in his ability. Usually boasted a great strikeout/walk ratio. At times, he could struggle to keep the ball in the park. Had injury problems rising up the ladder, but he became fairly durable with time. His curve lacked a bit of consistency. He usually saved his best for big-game situations.
Long Range Potential: Outstanding, clutch left-handed starter.
