Scouting Report
Has great stuff, including a power fastball that can reach the high-90's, and can rack up strikeouts. Can be used in a variety of roles due to his arsenal, including as a situational left-hander, setup man and closer. Injuries played a role in hurting his development as a starter, but he appears to have found his niche in the bullpen. Tends to lose velocity if he is used too frequently (and for too long an appearance).
Long Range Potential: Talented, late-inning left-handed reliever, when healthy.
