Sohn has spent the last three years in the St. Louis Cardinals organization. He reached the Double-A level in 2016 for a second consecutive season. The 23-year-old hit a combined .205 with three home runs and 23 RBI in 82 games last season.

Matthews was 1-1 with five saves and a 3.60 ERA in 2016 following a year-long recovery from Tommy John Surgery. The 23-year-old did not allow an earned run in 17 of his 20 relief appearances. Matthews was selected by the Cleveland Indians in the seventh round of the 2013 MLB Draft.
