Martinez (1-4) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out four against the Phillies on Tuesday, earning his first win as a starting pitcher since July 2018.
Martinez started off a little rocky after finding himself with runners on second and third and one out but was able to limit the damage to one run on a sacrifice fly by J.T. Realmuto. He later gave up an unearned run in the fourth that came as a result of two errors in the inning. He played a major part in limiting the Phillies to a season-low three hits and has now gone at least six innings while allowing one earned run in his last two outings. Martinez does appear to be trending in the right direction after posting a 7.80 ERA over his first three starts, but he should still be considered more of a streaming option moving forward. He's lined up to take on Jacob deGrom and the Mets on Monday.
