  Scouting Report & Links      
         
  Scouting Report: Medium, athletic frame. No remaining projection. Easy actions. High 3/4 arm slot, repeatable delivery. Long stride, medium to high leg kick. 90-93 mph fastball that can top out at 97 in short stints. Sinking action, solid command. Low-80s curveball with 11-5 action. Can get loopy. Fringe-average pitch. Low-80s changeup with downward movement. Has some potential. Questionable command of his secondaries. Signed for $4,750,000 in 2016, has not developed into the pitcher one would expect from that bonus. 80-game PED suspension in 2021. Profiles as an up-and-down bullpen arm with the ceiling of a low-to-medium leverage middle reliever. Acquired for cash from Milwaukee in April 2024 but struggled in five appearances, clearing waivers after being designated for assignment, spending time on the development list, then ultimately getting released.
  Note: This page will be updated with a complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the player in person.
