Baseball is finally back. As workouts move to live Spring Training games for the St. Louis Cardinals, there will be plenty of news to write about come March. Yesterday, fans received good news — Carlos Martinez is back on the mound.
Brian Stull of St. Louis Baseball Weekly reported yesterday that Martinez was spotted throwing a bullpen session off the mound and felt strong afterwards. Sure, it’s very early on in Spring Training, and this was only a brief bullpen session for Carlos, but it’s encouraging news nonetheless for the Cardinals.
Fans recall last season that Martinez was shutdown in late September due to a shoulder strain.
