Andriese's changeup a boon to D-backs' 'pen

CHICAGO -- There were at least two familiar faces for right-hander Matt Andriese to see when he walked into the D-backs' clubhouse for the first time on Thursday.

Andriese, who was acquired Wednesday from Tampa Bay for a pair of Minor Leaguers, played with Arizona outfielder Steven Souza Jr. and closer Brad Boxberger when they were all on the Rays.

Boxberger and Andriese, in fact, were roommates for a couple years during Spring Training.

"Pretty much, he's like an older brother to me," Andriese said.
