FACTS/FLUKES: Gausman, Choo, Morrison, Simmons, Hendriks

Gausman making gains...Former top prospect Kevin Gausman (RHP, BAL) is the the Baltimore Orioles' best hope for a homegrown ace since Mike Mussina departed for New York over 15 years ago. After bouncing between the pen and the rotation as well as the majors and minors for the better part of the past three years, the Orioles committed Gausman to their starting rotation for the final 11 weeks of the 2015 season. Gausman's skills surged during that time, culminating with an 8 inning, 5 hit, 1 run, 10 K, PQS-5 in his final start. Is now the time to invest in Gausman?
