Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said he has maintained contact with the agent for free agent right-hander Pedro Martinez.
Martinez was 5-1 with a 3.63 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in nine starts with the Phillies last season and figured prominently in their postseason rotation, but Amaro doesn't consider him an option to replace the injured Joe Blanton at this time. Amaro added that the Phillies have not been in contact with free agent left-hander Jarrod Washburn.

Yay Mozart!!!!!

No, it's a choke-n-stroke, the lack of oxygen enhances the nut. Ask David Carradine (or don't).

I'm past hyperventilation at this point. Amaro said he doesn't consider Pedro a replacement for Blanton at this point, so there it is. I do wish they'd sign him to keep anyone else from signing him (I'd LOVE it for Pedro to finish his career as a Phillie), but there we are.

Come what may.

His first pitch last night didn't look like it had much on it. Pass.

Pedro Martinez plans to pitch in 2010 and will start throwing this week, according to Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald. Pedro will work towards a midseason signing like the one the Phillies added him on last summer.

He would prefer to pitch for a contender, on or near the East coast in the National League.

Chalk one up for the Spanish-speaking side of the Bristol office. Phillies General Manager Ruben Amaro, Jr., gave an interview in Spanish to ESPN Deportes' Will Gonzalez yesterday, noting that the defending NL champions are currently negotiating with Pedro Martinez in regard to another midseason return to Philadelphia (link and audio in Spanish).
