I've not watched the Cardinals this season unless they played the Cubs. In the last few weeks, I'm pretty sure I've seen Martinez blow 4 saves. You have to have someone else?
Way to piss away a great start by Waino.
Yup. No business being there in a critical situation. You just know he’s going to give up runs. Only unknown is whether it will cost the game or not.******* Martinez.... jfc
Martinez should not be on the roster going forward - meaning next year - he is not reliable enough to keep.I don't even think his stuff is elite anymore, unless there is an injury. He hangs sliders and curveballs over the plate all the time.
lol. Don’t get your hopes up.Martinez should not be on the roster going forward - meaning next year - he is not reliable enough to keep.
I just do not understand when he has a 98 mile fastball, why he has to flip up sliders and cut fastballs. How about, here it is, no hit it. But no, he starts every hitter out trying to get cute, and flip up the slider, then he misses with his second pitch and before we know its, the count is 2-0 and now he has to throw strikes.
Million dollar arm, with a 10 cent brain. Smoltz was doing one of our games this year, and he pointed out Martinez should be top 5 to 10 pitchers, with his stuff.
That's not what happened today.I just do not understand when he has a 98 mile fastball, why he has to flip up sliders and cut fastballs. How about, here it is, no hit it.

That's not what happened today.
Donaldson hit an 0-1 pitch.
Swanson hit the first pitch.
Duvall hit an 0-2 pitch.
And THAT is why I laugh at the idiots that say Yadi isn't a HOFr. Numbers will never tell the whole story on that guy.
