The Orioles transferred left-hander John Means to the 60-day injured list Sunday with a sprained elbow.

The move wasn't a huge surprise after manager Brandon Hyde conceded the previous day that it would be a while before Means pitched again. Hyde said then that the 28-year-old lefty -- who threw a no-hitter less than a year ago -- was seeking second opinions about his injury. That hadn't changed as of Sunday morning.

"He's going to be getting second opinions and looked at, and they're going to look further in his elbow," Hyde said. "He's going to be out a while."
