His stuff is amazing. He needs to stay healthy and be consistent. His starts have been fairly predictable. After he recovers from an physical issue, he usually comes back strong. If it is a weak opponent and decent weather, he dominates. When it is hot and humid he tends to struggle more. If he could just remain healthy, he'd be what was advertised. Unfortunately, he has been in and out so much that it has delayed his development as a pitcher. He's still so inexperienced and has a lot to learn. But the stuff has always been there. Needs to throw the heat and not be in it.

One of his best starts was last week  - it was 95 and muggy out, I think the weather thing is not accurate - he had the problem with the sun screen one time and that has carried over to today
