Cleveland Indians GM Mark Shapiro says manager Eric Wedge will return next season
Shapiro credits his sixth-year manager for turning the team around in the second half of the season, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported Friday.
"Eric's strength and consistency are most apparent when we have adversity," Shapiro told the paper. "Those values don't always show themselves when we're going through that adversity, but those values are always apparent when we emerge from them."
Wedge, the 2007 AL manager of the year, has a 486-469 career record entering Friday.
