Cody Allen has been told by Indians manager Terry Francona that he has secured a spot in the team's Opening Day bullpen.
The 24-year-old appeared in 27 games with the Indians in 2012, posting a 3.72 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 27/15 K/BB ratio over 29 innings. Despite his struggles this spring, Francona assured him last week that he had the spot locked up. He's unlikely to pitch in many high-leverage situations however, making him worthless in most fantasy formats.
