I read an AP article that Pedro Martinez wants to pitch for Licey this winter if his toe injury gets better or something, is that going to go down?

The closest team is The Eastern Bulls, which play in La Romana... That's like 40 to 50 miles apart from Punta Cana... And first, they have to make it to the playoffs... In january is playoff
