Scouting Report
A very good athlete, he spent years in the professional baseball ranks as a first baseman, third baseman and designated hitter (and power-hitting left-handed batter). Now throws a very solid knuckleball. Is on the back-nine of 30 years old, so he is very late in switching roles and becoming a pitcher in the pro ranks. Therefore, he has very limited ability and is an extremely raw pitcher at this stage of his career.
Long Range Potential: Raw knuckleball pitcher.
