This was just an opportunity to get a starting pitcher. We need pitching.Veteran Ricky Nolasco, another potential trade chip, will get the start on Friday. The right-hander is 4-8 with a 5.40 ERA on the season and was roughed up for six earned runs on six hits and three walks in just two innings his last time out against the Boston Red Sox.Nolasco had been solid in three previous July outings, allowing three earned runs or fewer in all three starts.
