Tommy Milone chosen by Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles purchased the contract of left-handed pitcher Tommy Milone.

What It Means:

Milone could start the year either as a member of the Orioles' rotation or bullpen. The veteran left-hander had a 4.76 ERA and 94 strikeouts over 23 appearances (six starts) and 111 2/3 innings for the Seattle Mariners last season.

numberFire's models expect Milone to record a 5.07 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 30 strikeouts and 9 walks over 35 2/3 innings this season.
