Assets: | Induces tons of groundballs, has good command, a tremendous changeup and solid curve. Can strike batters out in pressure situations in Major League Baseball. |
Flaws: | Is not a classic situational left-hander, since left-handed batters hit him too well. Failed as a starting pitcher due to a lack of stamina and first-inning jitters. |
Career Potential: | Veteran left-handed reliever. |
