"Pedro Martinez enjoyed his time in the playoffs with the Philadelphia Phillies so much that he now wants to pitch all of 2010, Martinez's agent said, according to FoxSports.com. The agent, Fern Cuza, told the Web site that the three-time Cy Young Award winner has decided to return and pitch from the start of the season, rather than wait until midseason, as he did this year.
"In the playoffs, Pedro was having fun again," Cuza told FoxSports.com. "He was feeling no pain whatsoever. It was the first time in three years that he felt that way on the mound. Based on how he played, and how he responded, he's looking forward to playing next year (ESPN)."
Pedro can be a solid #4 or #5 guy in a rotation if he stays in the NL. He pitched well for the Phillies, but I still have my worries as to whether or not he can hold up for an entire season. Still, he has enough in the tank for a team to give him a 1 year deal. The question (as it always is with Pedro) is how much is he asking for?
