2012
Martinez gets lost amid a deep Atlanta pitching staff, but he had a productive season in the majors with a 3.36 ERA and .966 WHIP. While he doesn't have a great strikeout rate (6.7 K/9IP), it's strong enough since he generates ground balls (51.7 percent of batted balls in his career in the majors) and has great control. He probably won't repeat his meager WHIP number due to a very low .230 BABIP, but he should put up another solid season in middle relief. However, he may not have much fantasy value or have a high-profile role amid a deep bullpen.
2011
Martinez was Florida's minor league pitcher of the year in 2009, but he was exposed on waivers and the Braves picked him up last spring. At age 29, he's too old to be considered a top prospect, but he could find a role in the Atlanta bullpen after a strong showing at Triple-A. Martinez struck out 8.5 K/9IP and displayed good control at Triple-A before holding his own in Atlanta with a strong 22:6 K:BB ratio in 26 innings. While he only throws in the low-90s, he gets groundballs (over 50 percent groundball outs the past two years). He'll compete for a middle-relief role next spring.
2010
Martinez, the Marlins' Minor League Pitcher of the Year, was effective out of the Double-A rotation but his fastball/slider repertoire is better suited for the bullpen in the majors. He struggled after his first callup, but didn't look out of place after his second, and could compete for a job with the Marlins in the spring.
