Scouting Report
Is very crafty and deceptive, so he will mix and match his pitches to take away a hitter's timing. Rarely gives into batters and can take advantage of a hitter's over-aggressiveness. Lacks ideal size for a pitcher, so stamina has always been an issue for him. Also, he is a bit too hittable for the big leagues and surrenders too many base-runners as a general rule.
Long Range Potential: Journeyman right-hander.
