A versatile pitcher who can start or relieve, he has found his niche in MLB as a reliever. Keeps the ball down in the strike zone when he is at his best--inducing plenty of groundball outs. At times, he can struggle with his strikeout/walk ratio, though it has improved since becoming a full-time reliever. Does not have ideal size (6-1, 212 pounds) for a big-league pitcher. | |
Long Range Potential: | Decent right-hander. |
