How did he get to Cleveland? Traded by the Boston Red Sox with Bryan Price (minors) and Nick Hagadone to the Cleveland Indians for Victor Martinez in 2009
What is expected of Justin Masterson. After coming off of an 11-15 season Materson will be asked to be the number one starter on the Indians staff. Masterson is already off to a 2-0 start after beating both of the Cy Young winners of last season, R.A. Dickey and David Price in his first two starts. Masterson is reunited with Indians manager Terry Francona, who was with him in Boston. This should be a good fit.
