Indians Trade Mark Clark For Outfielder And Pitcher
Cleveland trades Mark Clark to the New York Mets for outfielder Ryan Thompson and pitcher Reid Cornelius opening a rotation spot for Chad Ogea who will start Sunday against Toronto. The move raises the possibility of Albert Belle leaving as a free agent after the season. Clark, 27, was 9-7 with a 5.27 ERA last year and spent time in Buffalo before rejoining the team. Hart cites faith in young pitchers and notes no minor league catching prospect was available. Clark performed 3-0 with a 3.68 ERA this spring.
