Report: Chris Tillman returning to Orioles

Free agent pitcher Chris Tillman will return to the Baltimore Orioles, according to FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman.

What It Means:

Tillman hit free agency this winter, but things didn't go as he had hoped. After a very poor 2017, Tillman chose the Orioles over signing minor league contracts with the Detroit Tigers and Toronto Blue Jays. The deal is reportedly for one year, worth $3 million. He will join the back end of the Orioles' rotation.

In 2017, Tillman went 1-7 with a 7.84 ERA and just 63 strikeouts over 93 innings of work.
