2014 Top 40 Season in Review
2015 Top 40 Season in Review

Inactive since 2015

Physical Description: Athletic, lean, projectable frame for added strength with physical maturity. 

Mechanics: Hands set at the belt. Shows ball behind back with slight wrist wrap. Quick and easy arm strength with low three-quarters arm slot. Repeatable delivery. 

Fastball: 89-91 mph with 2-seam sink down in the zone. Could add velocity with physical maturity. Profile for future average command and control. 

Curveball: 73-74 mph with long, 10-to-4 break. Can throw for strikes. Future average grade pitch.

Changeup: 81-84 mph thrown with great arm speed. Throws to both right-handed and left-handed hitters. Great feel. Future potential plus offering. 

Career Notes: Missed a month in first professional season with an ankle injury. Struggled in four starts before injury but excelled after returning. Was apparently suspended sometime during Extended Spring Training in 2016 and has not pitched for the organization since. Did pitch for the Red Sox' Venezuelan Liga Paralela team in the winter of 2018, and was present in Spring Training 2019, but once again appears to not be pursuing a professional career.

Summation: Once showed a projectable and advanced three-pitch mix for young age, with future middle-to-back end starter potential. Whatever off-field issue derailed his career is not clear and may never be publicly known.
