GOODYEAR, Ariz. —
Bieber is 60-32 with a 3.27 ERA in 134 games since debuting with Cleveland in 2018. In the pandemic-shortened ’20 season, he led the majors in wins, ERA and strikeouts.
Bieber was selected All-Star Game MVP when Cleveland hosted in 2019.
He joins Corey Kluber and Stan Coveleski as the only pitchers in franchise history to start five consecutive openers.
The Guardians open March 28 in Oakland. The game will also be a homecoming for first-year Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt, who retired following the 2022 season with the Athletics.
