Orioles minor league report: Cade Povich is showing improved control

For all the noise the Norfolk Tides have made on offense this season, one of their biggest standouts of the young campaign has been a starting pitcher. Left-hander Cade Povich has gotten off to a dominant start in 2024, leading all of Triple-A in ERA (0.83) and strikeouts (33) through his first four outings. The 24-year-old has already picked up some hardware as the International League Player of the Week. Before this season, Povich had displayed tantalizing strikeout ability for the Orioles but a propensity for free passes drove up his run totals.
