Analysis:
Izaak Martinez, a fifth-year senior, is a veteran reliever with a variety of summer league experience pitching twice in the West Coast League and once in the Cape Cod Baseball League. He has a quick delivery with a waist-high leg kick and a high three-quarters arm slot (near over-the-top). His repertoire includes a fastball that sits 86-90 mph and tops out at 92 mph. Additionally, he utilizes a 76-79 mph fading change-up. Martinez is an intense competitor with solid average command. Overall, he's an older left-handed bullpen arm that should provide minor-league depth.
