Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Named Opening Day starter

Bello has been named the Red Sox' Opening Day starter.

Analysis:

He was the pick over Nick Pivetta, who will start the second game of the season. It's been an eventful month for Bello, who agreed to a six-year, $55 million contract extension earlier this month and who now garners the first Opening Day start of his career. The 24-year-old will take on the Mariners in Seattle on March 28.
