Assets: | Has an electric, mid-90's fastball and a nasty, hard slider. Can dominate when he gets on a roll. Generally keeps the ball around the plate. Can log plenty of innings. |
Flaws: | Is woefully inconsistent. His fastball can straighten out at times, and they often take it out of the park. Doesn't trust his off-speed stuff nearly enough. |
Career Potential: | Solid, inconsistent veteran right-hander. |
