The rumor is Wednesday but I cant imagine that he wouldn't get a few AAA games under his belt before coming back...

he played "the joker" on the old '60's "Batman" show. This line-up will make him look like Cy Young.

Martinez is not a major league player! He is 29. Not a prospect. Put in Fontenot who has proven himself as a major league starter. When Chase returns, Martinez better be in AAA!

With the team's current record, why not just play here instead of in Allentown? Let him "rehab" here. I don't get it.

Martinez is terrible.How do you keep a .346 hitter on the bench and let a sad hitting .136 hitter keep playing? He must have something on old Charlie. He has no idea of who to play or what's going on with this pathetic team.

The big budget Pirates are looking forward to taking over first place this week since they get to play the Phillies at home. Amaro should ask them how they do it.
