May develop in majors Arizona pitching coach Matt Herges indicated that Martin may continue his development in the majors, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Martin was called up Monday ahead of what is presumed to be a start Tuesday against the Giants. While the organization would prefer he develop at the minor-league level, the Diamondbacks need starting arms, and their freefall -- they've lost 11 straight and 28 of 31 -- has given them the chance to let Martin develop at the MLB level. "I feel like we're in a position where we can do that a little bit more," Herges said. "We can bring guys up, test them in the major-league fire. Corbin is one of those guys, for sure." Martin had a rough two-start stint in the majors last month, picking up losses to the iron of the NL West -- the Dodgers and Giants -- then didn't fare well in his three starts for Triple-A Reno after being demoted.

Called up by Diamondbacks Martin was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Monday.
Impact Martin has made a pair of starts for the Diamondbacks this season, allowing nine runs in nine innings of work while striking out eight and walking seven. He seemingly lines up to start Tuesday against the Giants, though the team has yet to officially confirm that. Jon Duplantier was optioned in a corresponding move.

Sent to Triple-A Reno Martin was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Thursday.
Impact Martin has been roughed up in each of his first two starts with the Diamondbacks this year, and he posted a 9.00 ERA and 1.78 WHIP in nine innings. He'll head back to the minors as part of a shuffle after left-hander Ryan Buchter's contract was selected by Arizona.

Surrenders six in short start Martin (0-2) took the loss Tuesday against San Francisco, permitting six runs on five hits and three walks with two strikeouts in four innings.
Impact Martin ran into trouble against the heart of the Giants' order, allowing a bases-loaded double to Brandon Crawford in the first inning and a three-run home run to Evan Longoria in the third. This was only his second start of the season, and Martin probably won't stick around for long if he can't find a way to be more effective.

Remaining in rotation Martin will start Tuesday against the Giants, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Martin made his big-league debut last Tuesday against the Dodgers, giving up three runs in five innings of work. He wasn't called upon to start again when his turn in the rotation next came up, but he'll get back on the mound a few days later to start on six days' rest against another division rival.

On hand as rotation depth Martin is part of a group of depth starters that may be needed to fill holes in the rotation going forward, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Impact Martin, who had been a potential starter for the weekend series against the Rockies, did not pitch this weekend and is available for multiple spots in the rotation. Taylor Widener, who started Sunday, left after 1.2 innings with groin discomfort. Right-handers Zac Gallen (elbow) and Luke Weaver (shoulder) are already on the injured list. Weaver's getting a second opinion. Along with Martin, who made his first start for the team last week, Seth Frankoff and Matt Peacock made fill-in starts on Arizona's recently completed road trip. The Diamondbacks have not declared starters for home games Tuesday and Wednesday.

Luke Weaver is hurt, Corbin Martin is up and it's time to test the Diamondbacks' pitching depth "I have never been through anything like this in my career," manager Torey Lovullo said of the mounting injuries.

Arizona takes 3-game skid into matchup with Los Angeles
Arizona is looking to break its three-game losing streak with a win over Los AngelesMAY 19, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Goes five innings in season debut Martin (0-1) took the loss against the Dodgers on Tuesday, pitching five innings and allowing three runs on four hits and four walks while striking out six.
Impact Martin's Arizona debut got off to an ominous start when Mookie Betts tagged him for a home run leading off the bottom of the first inning. However, Martin bounced back nicely, preventing any scoring over the next three frames. He then served up a two-run shot to Chris Taylor in the fifth inning, which gave the Dodgers a 3-1 lead and set Martin up for the loss. The 25-year-old struggled with his command in the outing, issuing four walks and throwing only 55 of 96 pitches for strikes, but he helped himself by striking out six batters. The right-hander will face a tough task in his next start, as he'll head to Coors Field to take on the Rockies.

Called up for Diamondbacks debut Martin was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday and will start against the Dodgers.
Impact Martin made five starts for the Astros in 2019, struggling to a 5.59 ERA before being shut down for Tommy John surgery. He was a fairly highly-rated prospect prior to the injury, good enough to headline a trade for Zack Greinke even after undergoing the procedure, but he'll face a tough test against the defending champions in his first start for his new team.

Impact Martin's expected call-up was foreshadowed by Reno scratching him from his scheduled outing Monday for non-injury reasons. He'll end up joining the rotation as a replacement for Luke Weaver (shoulder), who is expected to be placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Martin made his MLB debut with the Astros in 2019, but after undergoing Tommy John surgery that July before being dealt to Arizona soon after, he has yet to make his Diamondbacks debut. Prior to being scratched from Monday's start, Martin had permitted only two earned runs while holding opposing hitters to a .143 average over his 9.2 innings with Reno.

Scratched from Triple-A start Martin was scheduled to start for Triple-A Reno on Monday but was not in the lineup for Aces, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact A source indicated Martin is healthy, which suggests the Diamondbacks plan to have him start a game this week or are keeping that option open. Arizona has not declared a starter for Tuesday or Wednesday. The right-hander is 1-0 with a 1.86 ERA and 14:6 K:BB in 9.2 innings across two starts for Reno.
MAY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Consistency needed Martin continues to throw at the alternate training site but has not yet been considered for a promotion, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Martin, who was the key piece in the Zack Greinke trade from July 2019, has not pitched for the Diamondbacks since joining the team. He was traded after undergoing Tommy John elbow surgery, then suffered an oblique strain last summer, wiping out 2020. "The reports that I'm hearing is he has some really good, solid moments but might not have that consistency that we're looking for," manager Torey Lovullo said. The Diamondbacks would rather the right-hander develop that consistency in the minors and not on MLB time.
