Scouting Report
Displays a lot of pitching savvy on the mound. Is extremely reliable and durable. Has a wicked curve that left-handed hitters especially have trouble with. Has converted well to a bullpen role in MLB. As a reliever, he is not as good at getting right-handed batters out. Gave up too many hits as a starter, mainly because he usually lacked the velocity to blow batters away. Is better in relief these days.
Long Range Potential: Situational left-hander.
