Since Pedro Martinez joined the Mets in 2005 he has been a overwhelming force on the field as well as in the club house. however over the past two seasons he has seen more DL time than game time. A hip injury in 2006 ended his season early, leaving him out until September of 2007 when he made a 3 for 5 return to end the season. While the Mets slumped and fell out of the top spot and lost their chance at a playoff run, Pedro pitched pretty good in his return. This season was supposed to be his proving ground that he can still pitch. However in his first start he pulled his hamstring and has been gone since the 1st of April. Today is his return, tonight at 10:15 in San Fransisco, from this moment until the end of the game any and all news regarding his return will be covered here.
