Henry Sosa - acquired in the Jeff Keppinger trade - will pitch tonight against Arizona, edging out bullpen candidate Aneury Rodriguez.
Since coming over from the Giants' organization, Sosa has thrown a total of 25.2IP, allowing 21H/6ER, 20K:7BB for the Hooks and RedHawks. He's had one start for OKC, throwing seven shutout innings at Las Vegas on August 5, meaning he's on regular rest tonight.
The Anuerysm has pitches better of late, strictly out of the bullpen. In nine appearances in July and August, he has thrown 12.2IP, 8H/3ER, 10K:1BB.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
