Scouting Report
A left-hander with a projectable frame, he can be used as more than just a situational lefty at the minor-league level. Has strikeout ability but can get into trouble when he starts to surrender too many free passes. Could also stand to add more bulk for greater stamina in the big leagues.
Long Range Potential: Situational left-hander.
