Chris Martin News
The Chicago Cubs signed free-agent relief pitcher Chris Martin to a one-year deal that guarantees him $2.5 million, according to a source. He'll have $500,000 in performance bonuses and a $250,000 roster bonus. The 35-year-old right-hander will work in a setup role in Chicago's bullpen, but he could have a shot at save chances if Rowan Wick falters in the ninth-inning role in 2022. Martin only struck out 6.9 hitters per nine innings in 43 1/3 innings for the Atlanta Braves last year, but he had a decent 3.95 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and one save in his 46 appearances. There will be better speculative closing options to take with late-round fliers in fantasy leagues, but Martin could become a waiver-wire pickup during the season if he surpasses Wick on the bullpen depth chart.
Atlanta Braves reliever Chris Martin is on the NLCS roster to take on the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to the team. Martin couldn't secure a spot on the division series roster but did have a productive season on the mound. He posted a 3.95 ERA with one save in 43.1 innings, although his strikeout rate was down from 30.3% last year to 18.2% this year. The 35-year old veteran takes Dylan Lee's spot on the roster after Lee didn't pitch in the NLDS. As well, utility player Johan Camargo takes outfielder Terrance Gore's spot. Camargo only played in 15 games this season and couldn't get a hit in 18 plate appearances.
Atlanta Braves reliever Chris Martin wasn't included on the team's 26-man roster for their National League Division Series matchup with the Milwaukee Brewers. The reliever pitched to a 3.95 ERA and a 3.47 FIP in 43.1 innings this season. As has been the case for much of Martin's Major League career, he did an excellent job limiting walks, surrendering just six this season. However, he didn't miss bats at the rate he has in years past. The veteran struck out 65 batters in 55.2 innings in 2019 and registered 20 strikeouts in 18 innings last season. However, his strikeout total fell to 33 this season. With Richard Rodriguez also being left off the roster for the series, Atlanta will rely on a bullpen that includes Jesse Chavez, Luke Jackson, Dylan Lee, Tyler Matzek, A.J. Minter, and Jacob Webb, as well as closer Will Smith.
