Red Sox Minor League Player of the Week (May 8-14)

TheBostonInsider's Daily Blog M.L.P.O.T.W. for May 8-14 is Double-A relief pitcher Edgar Martinez. Martinez, Portland's hard throwing righty, is 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA in 12 appearances for the Sea Dogs. He struck out 19 and allowed only 12 baserunners (9 hits, 3 walks) in 17-innings. Martinez, as reported by Peter Gammons among others, could fill a need in Boston at some point in 2006. Keep an eye on him.
