Tommy Thorpe and James Norwood, two pitchers from the 2014 draft class, will join the team from the Arizona Rookie League, while pitchers Greyfer Eregua and Alberto Diaz will join the Mesa Cubs.

Thorpe, a left-hander, returns to his home stadium tonight, as he was the Friday night starter for the Oregon Ducks. The eighth-round pick posted an 11-4 record and a 2.14 ERA this spring, earning All Pac-12 honors in leading U of O to the NCAA Regionals.
