Zach Eflin has been a perfect fit for the Baltimore Orioles.

It's been nearly two weeks since the MLB Trade Deadline. Now that the dust has settled, several key trends have already started to emerge for thefor not landing a true ace like Tarik Skubal, Blake Snell or Garrett Crochet, Eflin has proven to be a perfect addition to the team's rotation.

In his first three starts with the Orioles, Eflin has gone 3-0 with a 2.33 ERA and a 17:2 K/BB ratio in 19 1/3 innings. He's delivered a win and a quality start in all three of his outings, providing some much-needed stability and effective innings to Baltimore's injury-riddled rotation. That includes Eflin's gem against the Rays on Friday. He dominated his former team over seven shutout innings in his return to Tropicana Field, pitching his new team to a 4-1 victory and making the trade look even worse from Tampa Bay's perspective.And unlike many trade deadline acquisitions, the 30-year-old righty isn't a rental. He's still under team control through 2025, so the Orioles can pencil him into next year's rotation as well.

Eflin may not be an ace, but his skills and durability make him an ideal mid-rotation starter. He's exactly what the Orioles needed, and poaching him from a division rival makes the deal even sweeter.Tyler grew up in Massachusetts and is a huge Boston sports fan, especially the Red Sox. He went to Tufts University and played club baseball for the Jumbos. Since graduating, he has worked for MLB.com, The Game Day, FanDuel and Forbes.
