Justin Masterson has been named the Indians' Opening Day starter.

It'll be his second consecutive Opening Day start for the Tribe. Masterson is coming off a down season in 2012, where he posted a 4.93 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, and 159/88 K/BB ratio across 206 1/3 innings (34 starts). He'll be followed by Ubaldo Jimenez and Brett Myers in the starting rotation, with the final two spots to be decided in spring training.
