Pirates Trade Martinez for Cash or PTBNL
It was just announced that the Pittsburgh Pirates sent RHP Joe Martinez, to the Cleveland Indians for cash considerations or a player to be name later. Martinez, acquired in the Javier Lopez trade, during the 2010 season. He appeared in 5 games with the Pirates, putting forth a 0 - 0 record with a 3.12 ERA.
With this transaction today, John Bowker is the only player remaining, that was required from San Fransisco in the Javier Lopez deal. Though Martinez wasn't given much chance to show any possible upside, Bowker was, and will have more chance to show upside in the 2011 season.
