Carlos Martinez Struggles Again On Tuesday
4 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Carlos Martinez struggled again in Tuesday's start against Cleveland. He lasted just four innings, allowing five runs on seven hits and a walk. He did strike out seven, and he did certainly pitch significantly better than he did in his previous outing (2/3 of an inning, 10 earned runs allowed). Still, it's concerning for the Cardinals and for any remaining fantasy managers with Martinez in their lineup. He's up to a 6.21 ERA for the season and shouldn't be started in any lineups until he can put together a decent start, assuming he gets the chance to do so.
