"Pedro Martinez will make his return to the majors Wednesday when he starts for Philadelphia against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said Monday that the three-time Cy Young winner will come off the 15-day disabled list. He finished up last season with the New York Mets. To make room for Martinez in the rotation, the NL East-leading Phillies are sending 46-year-old left-hander Jamie Moyer to the bullpen. Moyer leads the staff in wins with a 10-9 record, but his 5.47 ERA is third-worst in the majors. The 37-year-old Martinez went 1-1 with a 5.11 ERA in three rehab starts in the minors (Sportsline)."
I don't know how much Pedro has left in the tank, but he has to do better then Moyer. Pedro was on his game in his last rehab start, and I think he will be solid for the Phillies, who look like by far the most dangerous team in the NL.
