What is his upside?
I saw a few of his games last year and he was so inconsistent.
I realize he is very young 21 I think, and already has 3 seasons in the majors if I recall correctly.

Do you feel like he will never reach his potential until he matures a little? He seems to have alot of attitude on the mound.

As for his stuff what does he possess?
70 2 seam fastball
60 4 seam fastball
70 curveball
75 slider
60 change up

is that accurate?

Appreciate the info

The curveball is more like an 85. He has heat.

2005 was not a full season, half of one if that. He just needs to be healthy.

His peak is basically the best pitcher in baseball. Many thought he would reach that this past year -- but it didn't happen. His start at Fenway last year definitely proved that he can dominate.
