Justin Martinez Activated by D-backs After Tommy John Recovery
Arizona's hard-throwing closer returns from Tommy John surgery and is expected to reclaim the ninth-inning role for the Diamondbacks.
The Diamondbacks are reinstating Justin Martinez from the 60-day injured list after he missed over a year recovering from Tommy John surgery. Martinez looked sharp in his rehab stint, throwing four shutout innings and averaging 101.4 mph on his four-seamer. He owns a 2.76 ERA and 30% strikeout rate across 88 innings since 2024. With Paul Sewald recently DFA'd and claimed by Toronto, Martinez is expected to step in as Arizona's primary closer.
