News: Pedro Martinez threw from Flat Ground
According to multiple reports, ‘Pedro Martinez threw from flat ground yesterday.’
On Sunday, Martinez left the team to work on his ‘flexibility’ in New York with his personal trainer Chris Correnti, after having difficultly getting ‘warm’ before and during his last start.
Tony Bernazard and Jerry Manuel both told reporters that the team still expects Martinez to start Saturday afternoon against the Phillies.
Manuel also stated that he will not – under any circumstance – flip Martinez and Johan Santana this weekend, to give Martinez an extra day off.
For what it’s worth, since Martinez joined the Mets, according to this site’s archives, I have written, ‘Martinez threw from flat ground,’ on seven different occasions.
