Earns first save
PHouston Astros
May 16, 2024
Martinez picked up the save in a win over the Athletics on Wednesday, allowing two walks over two innings while striking out one.
ANALYSIS
Martinez entered the contest with a three-run lead in the top of the eighth and struck out the first batter on seven pitches before issuing a walk to JJ Bleday. The right-hander would quickly work his way through it, however, thanks to a double play ball in the following at-bat, before returning for the ninth. Despite also issuing a walk in the final frame, Martinez was able to wrap up the game with another scoreless inning to notch his first save of the season. It was a nice bounceback effort for the reliever, who had allowed three runs in his previous appearance on May 12 against the Tigers. Closer Josh Hader covered two innings Tuesday while Ryan Pressly, Bryan Abreu and Rafael Montero pitched two straight days, which opened up the save chance for Martinez.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could start Saturday
PHouston Astros
May 17, 2022
Astros manager Dusty Baker confirmed Martinez is an option to start Saturday against the Rangers, according to Molly Burkhardt of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Even though Cristian Javier is the likeliest candidate to take over for Jake Odorizzi in the rotation if the latter is forced to miss time, don't rule out the chance of Martinez starting during the upcoming weekend series against Texas. The right-hander is currently on the taxi squad and owns a 4.15 ERA across eight relief appearances at the Triple-A level in 2022. He's also made two MLB appearances, giving up one hit and posting a 1:4 BB:K over 2.2 innings.
