Saturday's seven strikeouts were a season-high, and the right-hander will look to build on his strong performance in his next start, which will come on the road Thursday against the Angels.","date":"Sat Apr 27"},"fullName":"Chris Tillman","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"After three seasons split between Triple-A and Baltimore with mediocre results and poor command ratios in the latter, Tillman finally burst through with hints of promise as a 24-year-old last year. Thanks to continued polish of a cutter/slider, diversifying his arsenal, he made strides with his control, shaving what was a 3.99 walks-per-nine rate from 2009 to 11 in the majors to 3.02 per nine in 15 starts in Triple-A to begin and 2.51 in 15 starts for the Orioles to conclude 2012. This is not the Tillman of old -- he was rated Keith Law's 25th-best player aged 25 and younger this spring -- and he might have a leg up in the race for a rotation spot accordingly. Being a member of the hitting-rich AL East, Tillman might not be more than a late-round sleeper in mixed formats, and more so if he has a strong camp, but he's an attractive AL-only bargain bet for sure.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Thu Feb 21"},"playerRater30DAY":-0.8,"playerRater15DAY":1.5,"positionRank":124}
