Tillman might be on cusp of major leagues

Tillman might be on cusp of majors

Rookies Brad Bergesen, Jason Berken and David Hernandez are already part of the Orioles' rotation, and Triple-A Norfolk right-hander Chris Tillman, 21, appears to be the next man up if another injury occurs or the struggles of Berken or Rich Hill persist. Tillman threw 7 2/3 shutout innings Friday, striking out seven and allowing just four hits and a walk. He improved to 6-5 with a 2.69 ERA.
