Scouting Report
Has an intimidating frame for a major-league pitcher. Is also a smart hurler with a great feel for the position and good arsenal of pitches for the minor leagues. Can both start or relieve, which adds value. Is a little too hittable (especially in MLB), as he does not take advantage of his intimidation qualities nearly enough when on the bump. That is largely because his strikeout/walk ratio is lacking.
Long Range Potential: Mammoth, journeyman right-hander.
