Means allowed two runs (one earned) on eight hits and a walk with five strikeouts in five innings in a no-decision versus Tampa Bay on Friday.
The left-hander's eight hits allowed were a season high, but Tampa Bay didn't find much success until Means was out of the game. He's started to round back into form after initially struggling once he came off the injured list in July. Baltimore's ace has a 2.79 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 84:16 K:BB through 93.2 innings. He's projected for an easier matchup versus Detroit next week.
