Manager Terry Francona said Sunday morning that right-hander Shaun Marcum will start Wednesday against the White Sox and rookie left-hander Carlos Rodon at U.S. Cellular Field.
Marcum, with the exception of one five-inning relief appearance with the Indians on April 12 against Detroit, has spent the season at Class AAA Columbus where he's gone 4-0 with a 1.36 ERA in five starts. This will be Marcum's first start in the big leagues since July 6, 2013 with the Mets.
All Randy Wolf wanted was 10 minutes of a teamβs time. Just a quick tryout on a bullpen mound somewhere, anywhere. Iβll come to you, he said.
