Olds, making his MLB debut, takes the place of left-hander Raymond Burgos, who has been optioned to Worcester. The team is employing an opener and bullpen game against the Diamondbacks. Olds has a 5.33 ERA in 39 appearances with the WooSox this season, and he is expected to provide length in relief following injuries to Garrett Whitlock and Justin Slaten.
