Scouting Report

Tweener who would be better suited as RP, but should continue to stretch out as a starter to improve his arsenal and command. A two pitch pitcher with a good fastball and curve combination. Was throwing 91-93 mph as a starter in college and in relief he was up to 95 mph. Could see a tick or two increase on the fastball with what could be 96-97 mph in relief. Power curve has some serious spin and depth to it, and he has good command and control of the offering. His two pitch combo would make him a quality 7th or 8th inning arm. Changeup needs some refinements. Needs to refine a few aspects of his delivery, and create a safer arm action. Has the potential to be middle rotation starter, but is more likely a late-inning reliever.
