Between Rom, Wells and Lowther, the O's have quite a string of "crafty lefties" coming through.  Will the stuff play at the higher levels?  So far so good for Wells and Lowther, we'll just have to see what MLB hitters think though.

Look at John Means, it’s possible to add some velocity during the off-season and then suddenly results oriented crafty lefty becomes a little more intriguing.

And Rom is young...he could naturally add some velocity with more maturity, strength, etc..

1 er over 8 starts, says its time to move up.  

Need to be challenged.

Not that great of an outing..OTOH, he hadn’t pitched in almost 2 weeks, so he may have been a little rusty.
