We know the name of the first September Call-Up - Lucas Harrell, who will start Friday's game instead of Brett Myers, whose wife is having a baby on Thursday or Friday.
Harrell, in nine starts with OKC, has thrown 52.1IP, 42H/10ER, 38K:24BB, holding opponents to a .220 BAA. In his last four starts (29IP), he has allowed 9H/1ER, 15K:10BB.
Bummer for Andy Van Hekken, but there's still hope, I suppose. Harrell will stay with the team through the rest of the season.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
