A right-handed pitcher, showed real good stuff in game 1, pounds the zone, with a quick arm, 85-88 mph, mixed in a slurvey breaking ball. The delivery is sound, stays over the back leg, drives down through the catcher, a strike thrower, durable frame. The breaking ball has the makings of a legit out pitch, can spin it for a strike along with a swing and miss put-away pitch. Love the feel and tempo he works at.
