Scouting Report
A quality left-handed reliever, he can notch saves at lower levels and dominate batters via the strikeout. Doesn't back down from batters and has moxie. Doesn't have ideal size for a big-league pitcher (6-0, 195 pounds), so he needs to prove he has the stamina for an important bullpen role at the MLB level.
Long Range Potential: Decent left-hander.
