Tyler Wells exited after a 10-pitch scoreless first inning against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

The writing was on the wall when the Orioles added Chris Bassitt, and the team has confirmed that Wells will go into the season as a reliever. He’s pitched six scoreless innings with an 8/0 K/BB in five appearances this spring, and he could turn out to be a surprisingly strong seventh- or eighth-inning guy in the Baltimore pen.
