Leiter (leg) is throwing a bullpen session Friday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.
Scouting Report
Has the ability to pitch as both a starter and reliever in the minor leagues, which adds to his overall value in MLB. Also owns great bloodlines (his father Mark and uncle Al were both big-league pitchers). While he can strike batters out, his walks are an issue. Therefore, he must gain greater control of his pitching repertoire in order to maximize output at the highest level. Lacks ideal size for a pitcher.
Long Range Potential: Versatile right-hander.
