It's not every season a set-up reliever gets a Cy Young vote, but that's exactly what happened with Chris Martin of the Red Sox. And for good reason. In his first season in Boston, Martin turned in an incredible campaign, leading Baseball Isn't Boring to name him our Reliever of the Year. Bradfo catches up with Martin to talk about his season, how it came about, the recruitment by the Red Sox, and the real reason he ultimately found himself in his current surroundings.
