Pedro Martinez’s Rehab Sounds Fun

Pedro Martinez wasn’t someone many baseball fans would’ve guessed as a starter in the league championship series before the year started, but here we are and Pedro is going to the hill for Game Two today at 4:07 p.m. ET.↵↵How did Pedro go from washed up and finished to pitching a pivotal game for the Phils? Rehab you wouldn’t really wish on your worst enemy.↵

↵↵⇥“Both of my calves were blown out,” [Martinez] said. “That’s how I hurt my shoulder. I needed a complete up-and-down rehab.”↵⇥↵⇥His longtime personal physical therapist, Chris Correnti, who worked for the Red Sox and is now in the Mets’ organization, supervised his rehab.↵⇥

↵⇥↵⇥“It was really, really intense,” Martinez said of his rehab. “The most intense work I’ve ever done in my life. Two times I threw up while training and peed in my pants because I was out of control, it was so hard. I couldn’t do anything about it.↵⇥

↵⇥↵⇥“I’ll tell you this. I wouldn’t do it again.”↵⇥
