Pedro Martinez Discusses Future

By Ben Jones | March 3, 2009 at 9:12am CDT

TUESDAY: Adam Rubin of the New York Daily News has more info after talking with Pedro.  According to Rubin, Martinez "prefers retiring to his fishing boat if the alternative is accepting a Tom Glavine-like contract."

MONDAY: New York Mets beat writer David Lennon of Newsday sat down with free agent right-hander Pedro Martinez to discuss the starting pitcher’s plans.

In addition to saying he’d like to pitch this season in the Major Leagues, Martinez said he’d like to stay in the National League, given he already has a World Series ring with an AL squad.

He also said he doesn’t think the door is closed on a reunion with the Mets.

"I don’t know really," Martinez said. "The season hasn’t started. I’m not really worried about what they do. I’m just getting ready. For sure I’ll be ready. If I’m healthy, anybody would have a bargain – if I’m healthy. If I’m not, well, I’ll go home fishing. My boat is waiting for me."

Martinez, 37, went 5-6 with a 5.61 ERA in 20 starts for the Mets in 2008.
