i loved pedro martinez when he pitched here
he was and will always be a legend
hes now pitching in the B league against inferior competetion and lets not make any mistake about this
he left for the money in ny after he made 90,000,000.00 pitching here
his #s since he got hurt got worse and worse in the american league
he could no longer beat the yankees at all
why pay him 16M per when baltimore ny and even tampa were hitting him hard??
he doesnt see anything remotely like these offenses in the national league
it was a business move
sure i get sick watching him pitch in ny,we all do i think.
and i do miss the man,terribly,ive seen him pitch live and it was like watching marvin hagler fight,flawless execution,almost beyond human.
but it made no sense to sign him for 4 years when his next pitch may indeed be his last...
