"It's another step forward," VMart encouraged. His final (batting left-handed) swing banged a ball off the scoreboard after spraying several liners. He didn't want to speculate, but he had recently predicted he would be ready by opening day. (Chris McCosky, The Detroit News)
Fantasy Impact:
It's a big step in his recovery from surgery on his left knee he had back in February. Martinez is at the center of a potent lineup and his healthy bat will propel the surrounding hitters. Protecting Miggy and setting the table for Cespedes and JD Martinez is his job. He will be sure that his knee is strong enough to do so before getting back into the lineup.
