Note: Pedro wants to Pitch Beyond 2008
In a report for the New York Post, citing the player’s agent, Pedro Martinez wants to play beyond 2008, “As long as he’s able to pitch without the discomfort and the pain.”
Martinez will be a free agent at the end of next season.
In five starts during September last season,
Martinez was 3–1 with a 2.57 ERA during which he struck out 32 batters and walked just seven through 28 innings pitched.
…it was such a painful month, i often forget just how good he was…
Yesterday at his blog for Newsday, David Lennon pointed out that he is the only one, out of a few baseball writers who he spoke with recently, who believes Martinez will win at least 15 games this season.
…well, based on what pedro did in September, while factoring in a hiccup here and there, he should win 15 games…the question is: can he duplicate that performance from last season, and can he be healthy and consistent…all of which remain to be seen…
