Why Orioles pitcher Tyler Wilson has what it takes to succeed in the Major Leagues

He doesn't light up the radar gun, but he gets the job done, and he could continue to do so for a long time to come.

It wasn't long ago, just prior to the trade deadline, that Orioles right-hander Tyler Wilson was looked at as trade bait. He had come up to the Bigs earlier in the season to showcase himself for other teams. He was a Major League-ready arm that could help the O's nab an older, more experienced player to bolster their roster.

Fast forward to last night in Oakland. Wilson is still donning the black and orange, making a spot start in place of Opening Day starter Chris Tillman for the playoff-pushing Birds.
