BAL • Pitcher • #68

He had been projected by MLBTradeRumors.com to earn $2.7 million via arbitration. Wells looked electric in four starts in September following a return from Tommy John surgery, registering a 2.91 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and an 18/2 K/BB ratio across 21 2/3 innings. Now that he’ll have a full healthy off-season under his belt, it should be all systems go for the 31-year-old hurler heading into 2026.

It’s Wells’ worst showing in the four starts since he returned from Tommy John, but it was still a very positive September for the 31-year-old, who winds up 2-1 with a 2.91 ERA and an 18/2 K/BB in 21 2/3 innings. He should certainly be in the Orioles’ plans for 2026, though if the team adds to the rotation — and it certainly ought to — he might find himself in middle relief or Triple-A initially.

Wells allowed four hits, walked none and struck out four. The lone damage came on Mike Tauchman’s homer in the fourth. Wells improved to 2-0 with a 2.04 ERA and a 14/1 K/BB over 17 2/3 innings in three starts since returning from Tommy John surgery. The impressive comeback should ensure that he’s in the Orioles’ plans for 2026, though he might have to compete for a rotation spot in spring training. First, though, he’ll make one more start against the Pirates next week.

Wells locked horns with Pirates ace Paul Skenes in a throwback pitcher’s duel, trading zeroes into the middle innings during his second start back from elbow surgery. The 31-year-old righty filled up the strike zone and retired 20 of the 222 batters he faced into the seventh inning with a solo homer by Spencer Horwitz representing the lone tally for either side until the eighth inning. He’ll face the White Sox on Tuesday in his next outing.

Wells, making his first start of the season after completing his rehab from Tommy John surgery, tossed two scoreless frames before giving up a two-run homer to Luis Arraez in the third inning. He tossed two more scoreless innings, ending his day with four strikeouts over five frames while in line for the win. The 31-year-old right-hander is in line for a matchup against the Pirates in Baltimore next Wednesday.

Wells returns to Baltimore’s six-man rotation for his first outing since last year’s Tommy John surgery. The 31-year-old righty offers some streaming appeal for fantasy managers in extremely deep mixed leagues, but we’re anticipating more of a wait-and-see approach given his lack of significant strikeout upside.

Wells will make his return from last year’s elbow procedure early next week with Baltimore moving to a six-man rotation. The 31-year-old righty might offer some steaming appeal in deeper mixed leagues, but he’s more of a low-upside deep-league play at this stage of his career.

That rotation will feature Kyle Bradish, Trevor Rogers, Tomoyuki Sugano, Dean Kremer and Tyler Wells (elbow), with Wells expected to come off the injured list to make his season debut after rosters expand. It’s notable for Wells, but also for Trevor Rogers, as this will take away a start or two from the southpaw to finish the year.

Wells was up to 52 pitches this time out, throwing 41 of them for strikes. He averaged 92.9 mph on his four-seam fastball, which is up from 92.5 mph his last time out. He continues to work in all five of his pitches, and his command was much better this time out. There’s a chance that the 30-year-old could return to Baltimore’s rotation after just two more rehab starts. He’d be an option in deeper formats and is likely auditioning for a rotation spot in 2026.

Wells allowed three hits and two walks while striking out four and throwing 31 of his 49 pitches for strikes. The 30-year-old sat 92.5 mph with his fastball and featured all five pitches. His slider was the only pitch he had great command of, but it was an encouraging performance from the veteran. There’s a good chance that he’s back in the Orioles’ rotation in September.

Wells remains a good distance away from making it back to Baltimore as he wraps up his rehabilitation process from last year’s elbow surgery. The 30-year-old should make it back at some point in late August or early September.
