Martinez (5-5) was the pitcher of record in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cubs, allowing four hits and no walks while striking out three over four scoreless innings out of the bullpen.

Martinez entered the game behind opening pitcher Tony Santillan and threw his most innings since late May. The Reds shipped starter Frankie Montas out to the Brewers on Monday and will now have a permanent opening for the fifth spot in the rotation. Cincinnati could turn to Martinez to fill the void, given that he's already relatively built up and made five starts earlier this season.
