Scouting Report
Has a good arm and some strikeout ability. Has proven he can close out ball games at lower levels. Displays a little bit of deception in his delivery, too. His control still needs some improvement, since he walks too many batters (at the highest level). Must deploy better command of his pitches, too.
Long Range Potential: Decent reliever.
