Venable also added that Martin Perez and Jonathan Cannon have locked up spots in the club's season-opening rotation. No real surprises here. The decision leaves some combination of Sean Burke, Jairo Iriarte and Bryse Wilson in contention for the final two spots. Martin recorded a serviceable 4.32 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 47/23 K/BB ratio across 50 innings (11 appearances, 10 starts) last year after missing the previous season recovering from Tommy John surgery. He's shown some increased strikeout upside after adding a kick-changeup last August to his repertoire. He's an interesting late-round lottery ticket in deeper mixed leagues and AL-only formats.
