Pedro Martinez (shoulder) is lobbying to rejoin the Mets after just one more rehab starts.
"I need to pitch in the big leagues," Martinez said.
I feel like my pitches are improving, but I can't tell you how good I am until I get a big-league hitter out.
I am already pushing the issue, but it's going to take me a little while still.
The Mets will likely stick with their schedule and have Pedro make at least two more starts before coming off the disabled list.
Duaner Sanchez (shoulder surgery) has resumed throwing at Port St. Lucie, but according to Mets VP Tony Bernazard it is unlikely he will pitch for the Mets this season.
Sanchez is attempting to recover from a hairline fracture of the coracoid bone in his right shoulder.
He should be close to 100 percent for spring training.
