The Diamondbacks optioned Drake to Triple-A Reno on Friday.
After giving up three runs in just 3.2 innings during Thursday's loss, bringing his ERA up to 5.40 through 16.2 innings, Drake will now lose his place in Arizona's rotation. Kade Strowd will come up from Reno in a corresponding move to add to the D-backs' bullpen depth while the team sorts out its rotation plans.
