Scouting Report
Owned decent size and the ability to rack up plenty of strikeouts in the minor leagues. Also proved capable of serving as a closer at some lower levels. Got into trouble when he walked too many hitters, which often led to big innings against him (even in the minor leagues). His repertoire was rather limited, overall.
Long Range Potential: Decent reliever.
