John Means pitches brilliantly on Opening Day
by Lucas Babits-Feinerman | Orioles Correspondent | Fri, Apr 2nd 7:05pm EDT
John Means threw 97 pitches over seven innings, allowing one hit while striking out five as the Orioles topped the Red Sox, 3-0 on Opening Day.
Fantasy Impact:
Means generated 14 swinging strikes and allowed four hard-hit balls in the contest. His fastball topped out at 93.1 MPH, and he gained velocity as he pitched deeper into the game. The Orioles are undecided about when his next start will be - either Wednesday in New York or Thursday at home against the Red Sox. He is a breakout candidate this season and should be rostered in standard redraft leagues.
