Atlanta, Anibal draw Greinke in Arizona opener

[Hawksquawk]

Anibal Sanchez will take the mound when the Braves open a four-game series in Arizona on Thursday night. Sanchez has slashed his homer-per-nine-innings rate in half this year and established himself as a strong candidate for Atlanta's potential postseason rotation.
