Mychal Givens - O's Minor League Pitcher of the Month for April

[wildcard]

This guy is moving up the depth chart fast.

I was surprised they gave it to a relief pitcher then I went and looked at his numbers.

Age appropriate for his league. 14.2 IP in 8 appearances. .61 ERA, .818 WHIP, 13.5 K/9.

About the only thing not to like is the 4 walks and 3 WP.

This is Givens' sixth full season since he was drafted, and he is not on the 40-man roster. Good thing he wasn't subject to a Rule 5 claim! He'll certainly need to be added to the 40--man roster this winter, even if he isn't called up to the majors before then.

Thankfully he belonged to the team most likely to select him.
