  • The Guardians added Martinez to their ALDS roster Monday. He's an injury replacement for Tyler Freeman (oblique). Martinez slashed .232/.298/.338 with three homers and three steals over 43 games with the Guardians this season. The switch hitter should serve as a backup at several positions.

  • Martinez will start in left field and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Twins. For the fifth game in a row, Martinez will set the table for the Guardians after providing seven hits and two walks in 16 plate appearances over the past four contests. Martinez looks poised to handle an everyday role atop the batting order for Cleveland after Steven Kwan (back) was placed on the injured list Tuesday.

  • Martinez went 2-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Rays. Martinez was hitless in his return to the majors Saturday, but he followed it up with a better game Sunday. He's had the opportunity to fill in for Steven Kwan (body fatigue) this weekend, though Martinez could later push Will Brennan and Jhonkensy Noel for a piece of right field once Kwan is able to return to the lineup. Martinez has a .241/.318/.371 slash line with three home runs, three steals, nine RBI and 14 runs scored over 133 plate appearances in the majors this year, though his .274/.356/.456 slash line over 55 games with Triple-A Columbus displays some of his contact-oriented upside.

  • Martinez was recalled from Triple-A Columbus on Saturday, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports. Martinez has 125 plate appearances in the majors this season but has been with Columbus since Aug. 9. He'll immediately appear in the lineup, as he is set to lead off and play left field Saturday against the Rays with Steven Kwan (body fatigue) still sidelined. Martinez has maintained a .236 average with three home runs and two steals on the campaign.
