Cleveland Indians: Getting to know Tribe prospect Shane Bieber

While he may share the same last name as a pop culture icon, Cleveland Indians prospect Shane Bieber has begun to make a name for himself after a terrific 2017 campaign.

Drafted by the Indians in the fourth round of the 2016 draft out of UC Santa Barbara, Bieber took the New York-Pennsylvania League by storm with the Scrappers, allowing just one earned run and 12 base runners (0.50 WHIP) in 24 innings pitched.

Starting the season with Class-A Lake County, Bieber showcased his notorious pinpoint control by walking just one batter in five starts (29 innings).
