Pedro Martinez is on his back back to pitching for the Mets, but after his rehab start Wenesday, The Mets might be better with out him.
Pedro Martinez was hit hard Wednesday night in his first professional regular-season game since rotator cuff surgery last Oct. 5, but the Mets right-hander didn't seem concerned afterward.
Martinez was particularly concerned about his sinker. That was the pitch that led to both home runs, he said, and five of the hits.
"I was very stubborn in trying to establish it, establish it, and it didn't work out," he said. "I have something to work on now."
Martinez said he isn't sure when he'll next pitch, however sooner would be the better for the Mets who need some help in the starting rotation.
