Scouting Report (2008 BA Handbook)

His best pitch is a changeup with good action and depth, and he sets it up with an 87-91 mph fastball. His breaking ball is a slurvy mid 80’s pitch, and he struggles to command it effectively at times. He’s small and wiry, which combined with his injury history leads to questions about his durability. He ultimately may become more of a middle reliever than a bakc of the rotation starter. He should remain a starter in High Class A this year.
