Overall: Encarnacion isn't a flashy arm, but he has a legit shot at a big league future. The right-hander sits 89-92 with the heater but it's a high spin offering that gives hitters some trouble up in the zone. He has shown an ability to fill up the zone and also features a curveball and changeup. He has limited physical projection despite being 6'3" and 180 pounds, but if he can find a way to add a tick or two to the fastball he would have a better shot at sticking in the rotation. As of now he's straddling that line of prospect/emergency depth piece.
