Indians' Ryan Merritt: Moved back to Friday
Merritt is now slated to start Friday after Thursday's game was postponed due to poor field conditions, Zack Meisel of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis:
After a four-plus hour delay, the decision was made to postpone Thursday's game and make it up Monday, if necessary. The Indians will simply slide Merritt back to Friday rather than start Adam Plutko in the series opener against Kansas City.
