He has a big fastball with movement, so as long as he learns a change that can keep hitters guessing, he will be an ace. His curve is no where near as great as the papers are saying. Its breaks early, but moves a lot. He uses it effectively to set up the big fastball. He is a No. 1 for sure, as long as that change come along as everyone expects. I imagine he will get hit by the big bats, but everyone gets hit from time to time. Hope they don't pull a Kerry Wood on him and blow out his arm. He has never been stretched out and can;t throw 180 innings or anywhere close to it. He already has thrown 55 innings this year.
