Martinez (2-3) allowed three runs on five hits and two walks across six innings in Monday's win over the Marlins. He struck out seven.
Martinez dominated for much of his outing but had no answer for Marcell Ozuna, who accounted for all the damage against him with a pair of home runs. Luckily, the right-hander was also extremely effective at the dish himself, driving in four runs with a pair of hits to supplement his solid outing. Martinez has fallen victim to the long ball at times this season, which factors into his 3.86 ERA, but if he can curtail that aspect of his performance, his 10.7 K/9 will play up even more nicely for fantasy owners. He's now fired three consecutive quality starts, and Martinez will try to keep it going Sunday against the Cubs.
