Promoted for Sunday's start Martin was recalled from Triple-A Reno and will start Sunday against the Nationals.

Impact The 26-year-old was previously announced as the starter for Sunday's contest, and he's now officially been added to Arizona's active roster. Martin has come out of the bullpen in his five big-league appearances this year and has a 4.40 ERA and 14:6 K:BB across 14.1 innings, though he's worked as a starter in the minors and delivered eight shutout innings for Reno in his last start.

Starting Sunday Martin will start Sunday's game against the Nationals, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.

Impact The 26-year-old will have a chance to earn a spot in the Diamondbacks' rotation after Dallas Keuchel was designated for assignment Wednesday. Martin made five relief appearances for Arizona earlier this year and posted a 4.40 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in 14.1 innings.

Candidate for rotation slot Martin could be an option to enter the Diamondbacks' rotation after the team designated Dallas Keuchel for assignment Wednesday, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports. The r...

Impact Martin had been a candidate a month ago for the rotation, but Arizona went with the veteran Keuchel, who eventually logged a 9.64 ERA with 27 hits and seven walks allowed over four starts (18.2 innings). With a decreasing strikeout rate and increasing barrel rate, the Diamondbacks pulled the plug on Keuchel and are expected to look at one of their young hurlers at Reno, including Martin, who was the key piece in the deal that sent Zack Greinke to Houston three years ago. The right-handed Martin has pitched well in back-to-back starts, most recently firing eight shutout innings for the Aces one week ago. The organization may also consider lefty Tommy Henry, who has a 3.55 ERA over 18 starts (96.1 innings) at Reno.

In mix for rotation? Martin struck out a career-high 13 batters and walked one over 5.2 innings for Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

Impact Martin's posted four excellent outings over his last five starts for the Aces, making a strong case to be considered for the open No. 5 starter job. The right-hander has mixed in a curveball more effectively, Arizona assistant general manager Amiel Sawdaye told Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. "I think the curveball gives him a little bit more separation (from his fastball and slider), a little bit more depth," Sawdaye said. "(Earlier this season), he would throw it every once in a while, but he didn't really want to throw it that much. Clearly, now he's throwing it more and it's giving him a little bit more of a swing-and-miss pitch." The Diamondbacks haven't named any starters yet for this weekend's series against the Tigers, but manager Torey Lovullo plans to use a fifth starter during the set. Martin should be a considered a longshot with Dallas Keuchel the most likely candidate.

Optioned to Triple-A Martin was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Friday.

Impact He had a 4.40 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 14:6 K:BB in 14.1 innings working as a long reliever with the big club. Marin will presumably stay relatively stretched out at Triple-A.

Throws bulk relief Martin allowed two runs on three hits and four walks while striking out three over four relief innings in Wednesday's 8-7 win over Miami.

Impact Martin didn't wake up knowing he'd be the bulk-inning pitcher Wednesday, but he was needed after Madison Bumgarner was ejected after the first inning. Forced to warm up on short notice, Martin walked two and gave up a single to the first three batters faced, and the first two runners eventually scored. The right-hander settled in after that, providing critical relief and allowing Arizona's bats to impact the game. It was the fourth time in five outings that Martin's thrown two innings or more.

Castellanos, Diamondbacks cool off Mets with 5-2 victory

Back in big leagues Martin was recalled by the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Impact Martin was optioned Thursday but is eligible to return just two days later with Sean Poppen (shoulder) hitting the injured list. Martin seemingly has a future in the Diamondbacks' rotation but has been a reliever thus far this year, striking out nine and walking just two while allowing a pair of earned runs in six innings.

Optioned to Triple-A Martin was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Thursday.

Impact Martin began the season in the major-league bullpen and gave up two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out nine in six innings during his two relief appearances. Although he was relatively effective, he'll head to the minors after infielder Matt Davidson's contract was selected Thursday.

Working in long relief Martin gave up three runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out five in four innings of relief Sunday against the Padres.

Impact Caleb Smith gave up five runs (four earned) in just one inning, so Martin came in behind him to log bulk innings. The Diamondbacks opted to open the year with Martin in the bullpen, but he is relatively stretched out, so he could be used as a spot starter when needed.

Makes second spring appearance Martin allowed two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out two over 2.2 innings in a spring training start against the Dodgers on Monday.

Impact Martin made his second appearance and first start of the Cactus League. Both outings were for multiple innings, so he's being stretched out as a potential starter for Arizona, which is looking to fill the fifth spot in the rotation. Zach Davies is the leading candidate, but he may not be ready the first week of the season. If Martin doesn't stick with the Diamondbacks -- as a starter or long reliever -- he'll likely serve as a starter at Triple-A Reno.

Optioned to Triple-A Martin was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Friday.

Impact Martin was sent down following a disastrous start in which he allowed four runs while recording just a single out against the Padres. He's had a very tough time in 16 major-league innings this season, allowing 19 runs while posting a 13:14 K:BB. Brett de Geus was added to the roster in a corresponding move.

Knocked out in first Martin (0-3) allowed four runs on three hits and two walks over one-third of an inning, picking up the loss to the Padres on Friday.

Impact Martin gave up back-to-back home runs to open the game and later hit a batter among the seven batters faced. He's given up 23 hits (five HR), 19 runs and 14 walks over 16 innings, which has manager Torey Lovullo re-thinking the decision to put him in the rotation. "We'll sit down and have some conversations as a staff and figure out the best thing moving forward for him and the rest of the group," the manager said when asked if the club will reconsider Martin's spot in the rotation, per Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. If a change is made, Riley Smith, who provided 3.2 innings of relief Friday, could get the call next Wednesday at St. Louis.

Paddack expected to start for the Padres against the Diamondbacks

The Diamondbacks will start Corbin Martin on Friday while the Padres are expected to counter with Chris Paddack

JUNE 25, 2021 • Associated Press

Starting Friday Martin will start Friday's series opener against the Padres in San Diego, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo confirmed the assignment for Martin, who has not gotten off to a good start with the team. The 25-year-old right-hander has an 8.62 ERA and 2.04 WHIP over four outings (two starts). Martin believes he's trying to be too fine with his pitches, particularly with two strikes. "I think I'm picking the zone a little bit too much," he said. "I would say that at some point I try to be too perfect with two strikes and that's when I'm losing guys." Opposing batters are hitting .281/.395/.563 off Martin with two strikes, while the league average in those situations is .161/.237/.259.
