I use to play ball with him, about four years ago back in Houston. Scotty is a competitor and has some outstanding stuff (obviously or he wouldnt be where is is today). But what helps him the most, and you saw it with Beckett [another H-town boy], is a degree of confidence that will help him over come big situations. He wont be scared or intimidated. The bigger the name, the bigger the situation, the bigger Scotty wants to show off his stuff. I just hope his body frame can keep up with his wing. There is a lot of fire that comes off that arm of his - needs to keep himself healthy to endure a long season in the bigs. Sounds like the Mets are doing well working him in though.
