Indians moving Trevor Bauer to the bullpen; Cody Anderson No. 4 starter, Josh Tomlin No. 5

The Indians announced on Wednesday that they will be moving Trevor Bauer to the bullpen and making Cody Anderson and Josh Tomlin the No. 4 and No. 5 starters in the rotation.

The moves effectively finalize the Opening Day 25-man roster.

Bauer finished last season in the bullpen and will be opening 2016 there as well. He's pitched well this spring, holding a 2.25 ERA and striking out 19 batters in 20 innings pitched. But, Josh Tomlin has improved in the second half of the spring and Cody Anderson has seen an uptick in veocity and has been working on his curveball.
