White Sox's Drew Thorpe: Receiving another start

Thorpe is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks at Chase Field.

The bar has been low for pitchers at the back end of the White Sox rotation this season, so it's not surprising that Thorpe will stick around with the big club after he held his own in his MLB debut Tuesday in Seattle. He covered five frames and allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks while striking out four and inducing swinging strikes on 11 of his 98 pitches, right around a league-average rate.
