The Tampa Bay Rays send Andy Sonnanstine to AAA
The Rays have sent righty starting pitcher Andy Sonnanstine to AAA to make room on the active roster for Scott Kazmir. Sonnanstine has pitched in 15 games (all starts) for the Rays this season and he is 6-7 with a 6.61 ERA and a 1.53 WHIP. Sonny has allowed 103 hits in only 81 2/3 innings for the Rays this season and 15 of them are homers. In parts of three seasons with the Rays, Sonnanstine has pitched in 69 games (all starts) in which he is 25-26 with a 5.30 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP. Maybe the Rays will use Sonnanstine as trade bait if they feel they have a need before the trade deadline.
