Carlos Martinez Gets Back On Track With A Win On Tuesday
3 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Carlos Martinez got back on the right track with a win and a quality start in Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Martinez threw six innings, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out six. The veteran righty has been struggling massively of late, so it was good to see him pitch well in this one to improve to 4-9 and drop his ERA to 6.38. While some might say, "but it was the Diamondbacks so it doesn't count," Arizona actually has a decent offense, it's been their pitching that's let them down. Martinez has certainly earned at least one more start, but it's hard to believe he's not on thin ice.
