Major League Baseball Hall of Famer and Red Sox legend Pedro Martinez threw high praise onto Boston’s budding star pitcher Brayan Bello.
Martinez appeared on the broadcast of the Red Sox-Dodgers game Friday night and compared Bello to himself. A three-time Cy Young winner and eight-time All Star, Martinez clearly sees a lot of potential in Bello.
“I think he has no ceiling. I think this kid can be equally as special as me,” Martinez said. “But he still has work to do.”
Bello is early in his major league career but has already proven himself as a starting-caliber pitcher.
