The promotion of Mychal Givens to the Baltimore Orioles is a move to pay attention to.

The hard-throwing Givens earned his first big league promotion last week. He is an arm that could one day be in Baltimore to stay.

It seems like the promotion of right-handed pitcher Mychal Givens got lost in the shuffle a bit last week, especially since the 25-year-old is still yet to make an appearance for the Orioles. However, the rate at which Givens has succeeded on the mound is something that should be noted. Plus, he spells the name "Michael" with a "Y". That's pretty freakin' cool.

As you likely know by now, Givens was expected to make waves in Baltimore's system with his bat, not his arm.
