Had a good arsenal of pitches, including a very good sinker, and a knowledge of the craft. Early on in his career, he was used as a starter but found his niche in Major League Baseball as a late-inning reliever. Lacked stamina. Injury issues were often a problem for him, and it made him far less reliable over time. | |
Long Range Potential: | Excellent late-inning reliever (when healthy). |
