Pitching
Ashworth can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Ashworth also has a decent changeup. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.
Defense & Hitting
Ashworth's forte is holding runners at bay. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Ashworth is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Ashworth has some pop in his swing.
2010 Outlook
Ashworth performance in AAA is making it difficult for the Montreal Expos to ignore him much longer. Expect his name to be on the September call-up list. I really like what this kid brings to the table.
