Corbin Martin - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Outrighted to Norfolk Martin cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Norfolk, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Martin will officially stick in the Orioles organization after being designated for assignment Tuesday. He'll provide the club with organizational bullpen depth at Norfolk, but after putting up a 5.29 ERA and 1.40 WHIP through 32.1 innings in the minors, he's unlikely to get another opportunity with the O's this year.

Winds up with save Martin picked up the save during Tuesday's extra-innings win against the Red Sox, pitching a perfect 11th inning.

Impact Martin was the sixth Orioles reliever to pitch in the contest, but an RBI groundout by Samuel Basallo in the top of the 11th frame opened up a save chance for the 29-year-old pitcher. Baltimore's closing job appears to be wide open without Felix Bautista (shoulder), who's out for the season. Keegan Akin has blown his last two save chances and pitched the sixth and seventh innings Tuesday, Yaramil Hiraldo blew a save Tuesday and both Dietrich Enns and Yennier Cano have been shaky lately. Outside of a six-run outing against Philadelphia on Aug. 4, Martin has a 15.4 ERA and a 15:5 K:BB across 11.2 innings, which could be enough to earn some save chances in the closing weeks of the regular season.

Pummeled for six runs Martin was roughed up for six runs while failing to record an out in Monday's loss to the Phillies.

Impact Martin notched a save last week against the Blue Jays, thrusting himself into the closer conversation as part of a bullpen that's lost Felix Bautista (shoulder) to injury and Gregory Soto, Seranthony Dominguez and Andrew Kittredge to trades. However, in his two appearances since that save Martin has entered in the sixth inning both times. He managed to pitch around a couple hits in the first of those outings, but he was not so lucky Monday. The Orioles' bullpen remains unsettled, but it seems unlikely Martin will be entrusted with another save chance anytime soon.

Secures first career save Martin recorded his first career save in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Blue Jays, walking one and striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning.

Impact With Felix Bautista (shoulder) on the shelf, Gregory Soto a Met and Seranthony Dominguez getting traded to Toronto between games of the twin bill, high-leverage spots are up for grabs in the Baltimore bullpen. Yennier Cano pitched the seventh inning in the matinee, a 16-4 rout for the O's, while Andrew Kittredge worked the eighth in the nightcap against the heart of the Jays' order before handing things over to Martin for the ninth. The 29-year-old right-hander was once a promising prospect in the Houston system, but injuries have turned him into something of a journeyman. Martin doesn't quite have elite stuff as a reliever -- his fastball topped out at 97 mph Tuesday, and his slider has a whiff rate of just 16.7 percent this year -- but interim manager Tony Mansolino is apparently willing to give him a look as part of the late-inning mix. Kittredge's usage Tuesday suggests he might be the favorite to handle the bulk of the save chances while Bautista is out, but he also might be the next arm shipped out before the trade deadline.

Re-ups with O's The Orioles signed Martin to a one-year major league contract Friday.

Impact Baltimore designated Martin for assignment Sunday, and he elected free agency. However, he'll remain with the Orioles after signing a one-year deal. Martin threw 1.1 scoreless innings in his only big-league appearance this season and logged a 5.29 ERA in 32.1 innings at Triple-A Norfolk.

JULY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Elects free agency Martin cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Impact Martin pitched 1.1 scoreless frames July 2 in his first major-league appearance since 2022, but he hasn't appeared in a game since then and will now look elsewhere for his next opportunity. The 29-year-old righty owns a 5.29 ERA and 1.40 WHIP through 32.1 innings in Triple-A this year, so he's most likely to land with another organization on a minor-league pact.

Dropped from 40-man roster The Orioles designated Martin for assignment Sunday.

Impact After being called up from Triple-A Norfolk on July 2, Martin tossed 1.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen later that day in a game against the Rangers but went unused since then. The Orioles opted to swap Martin out of their bullpen for another left-handed arm in Grant Wolfram, who was recalled from Norfolk. Since Martin has previously been outrighted to the minors, he'll have the ability to elect free agency in the likely event that he clears waivers.

Gets first look in majors since '22 The Orioles selected Martin's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.

Impact Martin is back in the big leagues for the first time since 2022, when he made seven appearances (two starts) for Arizona. Since undergoing surgery in March 2023 to repair a right lat tendon tear and missing that entire season, Martin has made the full-time move to the bullpen. He owns a 5.29 ERA in 29 appearances at Norfolk this season but was sharp throughout June, permitting just one earned run on three hits and four walks while striking out eight over 10 innings.

Claimed by Milwaukee Martin has been claimed off waivers by the Brewers, and assigned to their Triple A team in Nashville, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Martin was with the Diamondbacks minor league team In Reno earlier this year, but was dropped from the teams' roster Apr 7. The 28-year-old pitcher will test his luck with the Brewers organization in Nashville, though he hasn't had many opportunities on the field this year, with only two appearances and an ERA of 9.0.

APRIL 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to Triple-A The Diamondbacks optioned Martin to Triple-A Reno on Monday.

Impact Martin was slow-played this spring after missing all of last season with a tear in the lat tendon of his right shoulder. He's healthy now and could contribute in the Diamondbacks' bullpen at some point this season, but for now he'll try to sharpen things up at Reno.

Transferred to 60-day IL Martin (lat) was transferred Friday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

Impact This move clears out a 40-man roster spot for lefty reliever Anthony Misiewicz, who has been acquired via trade from the Cardinals. Martin is done for the season after undergoing major surgery this spring to repair a right lat tendon avulsion.

MARCH 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on 15-day IL Martin was placed on the 15-day injured list by the Diamondbacks on Thursday with a right lat tendon avulsion.

Impact Martin is slated for season-ending surgery to repair his lat. The Diamondbacks will move him to 60-day IL once they need a 40-man roster spot.

MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to miss entire season Martin (shoulder) is likely to miss the entire 2023 season.

Impact Martin suffered the injury March 15, and he has opted for surgery, according to Arizona manager Torey Lovullo. The manager added Martin is doubtful to return in 2023 while noting it's uncertain when the pitcher will undergo the procedure.
