During his time in Major League camp this spring, Clevinger put his high-octane personality on display. In bullpen sessions, the right-hander looked like he was trying to throw his fastball through the catcher. During his delivery, Clevinger's long hair whipped across his shoulders as he uncorked his pitches. He is aggressive and intense, and Cleveland loves it.

As the Indians plan for the season ahead, their rotation at the Major League level is pretty established.
