Phils interest in Pedro picking up steam

The Inqy is reporting that the Phillies have decided to scout free agent pitcher Pedro Martinez.

Citing a source with direct knowledge of the situation, Andy Martino confirms the team will take a look at the former Cy Young Award winner as early as today in the Dominican Republic.

Martinez, 37, is a sterling 214-99 with a 2.91 earned run average in 17 big league seasons but was just 5-6 with a 5.61 ERA for the New York Mets last season.
