Believe it or not, Justin Masterson is very excited about being an Cleveland Indian. You would think a man who was a staple in the Boston Red Sox bullpen for the past couple years wouldn't be, since literally he goes from a team in the pennant race, to a team in rebuilding mode.
"Initially, it was some bitter sweetness, because of the great thing going on in Boston. But after you think about it, it's a great opportunity for me here", Masterson, a Ohio boy, said before Saturday's game against the Tigers.
Masterson will come out of the bullpen for his first few appearances as a Cleveland Indian, but as time moves along, he will be implemented into the starting rotation.
"It sounds great. That's where I have been, done both (starting and relieving) in the past couple years. But it's a challenge I'm excited for."
But all in all, he doesn't care where he is, either starting rotation or bullpen, he just wants to pitch well and help the ball club.
