Tyler Wells answers call for Birdland while Giants await reinforcements against Rockies.
Tyler Wells, a 28-year-old right-handed starting pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles, has emerged as the team's ace this season. Despite lacking elite velocity or breaking balls, Wells has shown impressive consistency and stretches of dominance, thanks to his pinpoint control and elite spin rate on his fastball and changeup. He currently ranks among the top pitchers in the league in several categories, including batting average against and walk rate. While the Orioles may still need to improve their rotation, Wells has proven himself as a worthy ace for the team.
