Pedro Martinez appeals to MLB, players: 'Get something done' to avoid lockout

Hall of Fame pitcher Pedro Martinez has publicly appealed to both MLB players and team owners to reach an agreement on their Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) negotiations, urging both sides to 'get something done' in order to avoid a potential lockout. Martinez made his plea as talks between the league and the players' union were ongoing, with the threat of a work stoppage looming. The former Red Sox ace's comments reflect growing concern from prominent baseball figures about the consequences of failing to reach a new labor deal.
