I’m as big a supporter of Charlie Manuel as anyone, but his decision to start Pedro Martinez in a critical Game 3, over Joe Blanton and JA Happ, doesn’t make one bit of sense to me.
First of all, if Saturday’s game is played, it’s going to be below freezing...
Celizic: Pedro vs. Yanks always more than a ballgame
Celizic: Pedro Martinez has a knack for finding the big moment. Part of that has to do with the fact that he is one of the rare athletes whose charisma and talent are both off the scale. And when Pedro faces the Yankees, it’s always more than a mere ballgame.

Pedro Meets The Yankees Again

The Phillies lift Pedro Martinez after three innings of work. He allowed seven hits and three runs. I wonder if it had anything to do with back to back performances of 119 and 130 pitches. Did Charlie Manuel cost the Phillies a great pitcher for the playoffs by extending him too much? [...]
