You know, we'll never see a 1999 Pedro Martinez, EVER again. I consider him to be the most dominant pitcher of our time, and probably the cleanest. I even watched him when he was with the Expos.

I think if it wasn't for his injuries, he probably coudl reach atleast 250 wins. But with his recent issues I don't see that happening. Regardless, the man is going to the Hall of Fame.

Truth to be told, I'd rather see him retire now, ahead of the game, instead of doing what Roger Clemens has down with his several retirements and reappearances.

Then again you never know, he may comeback strong and have a decent season.
