    Padres Officially Re-Sign Nick Martinez

    The San Diego Padres officially re-signed right-hander Nick Martinez to a three-year, $26 million deal on Wednesday. Martinez hit the open market when he declined his $6.5 million option for the 2023 season last week, but the two sides quickly worked to bring him back in 2023 and beyond. The 32-year-old opened the year in the Friars' rotation, but eventually moved to a relief role, where he was much more effective. Martinez even filled in as the closer when lefty Josh Hader was struggling, earning eight saves. He finished with a 3.47 ERA (4.43 FIP), a 1.29 WHIP, 95 strikeouts and 41 walks in 106 1/3 innings over 47 appearances (10 starts). There's a good chance that Martinez will open the 2023 campaign in the starting rotation, which gives him much more fantasy appeal for his strikeout upside.

    Nick Martinez Reportedly Returning To Padres

    Free-agent pitcher Nick Martinez is reportedly returning to the San Diego Padres after opting out of his contract with the team to start the offseason, per NY Post's Jon Heyman. Both sides agreed Tuesday, but details were not disclosed. The 32-year-old played a large part in both the starting rotation and out of the bullpen for the Padres in 2022, pitching 106 1/3 innings over 47 appearances (10 starts) with a 3.47 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 21.2% strikeout rate, four wins, eight saves and eight holds. His ability to deliver in tight spots was showcased during the playoffs, and while his hybrid role will be useful for the Padres, it does limit his fantasy value.

    Nick Martinez Opts Out Of His Deal

    San Diego Padres right-hander Nick Martinez opted out of his $6.5 million player option for the 2023 season and is now a free agent. The two sides had been discussing a potential restructure in recent days, but Martinez has decided to test the open market after a strong season as a swing man for the Friars in his first year in San Diego. He had $18 million over three years left on his deal with the Padres, but he could still choose to re-sign with them. Martinez finished the 2022 campaign with a 3.47 ERA (4.43 FIP), a 1.29 WHIP, eight saves and 95 strikeouts in 106 1/3 innings pitched over 47 outings (10 starts). He was much more effective in relief, posting a 2.67 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 48 K's in 54 innings. He won't have a shortage of suitors on the open market after his impressive postseason performance.

    Nick Martinez Now The Preferred Closer For Padres

    San Diego Padres manager Bob Melvin said Monday that relief pitcher Nick Martinez is currently the team's preferred option at closer, per the Athletic's Dennis Lin. The Padres traded for Josh Hader at the deadline, but he has completely collapsed since then. On the other hand, Martinez has pitched well all season both in the rotation and out of the bullpen with a 3.07 ERA and six saves. Melvin's statement, coupled with the fact that Martinez's last two appearances have resulted in saves makes him worth a roster spot in at least all roto leagues.
