COMMENT: Large frame. Tall, angular and lean build, like Jack McDowell. Deliberate mechanics. Fastball near average in velocity, sink action when down. Slurve-type curveball. Start of splitter for change that gets occasional sink action.
COMMENT: Tall, very slender build. Easy release, free arm. Downward curveball with hard bite. Also throws slower curve, effective as change-up. Can throw curve for strikes, ahead or behind. Fastball has slight tail. Aggressive. Command. Plays first base, outfield when not pitching.
