Nuke LaLoosh-type pitcher who insisted on throwing the baseball as hard as he could before finally learning to be a pitcher mid-career. Used out of bullpen and as a starter, the Texan won 171 games in a career that could have been much more noteworthy had he received tutelage from a better pitching coach earlier.
