ATLANTA – While Pedro Martinez remains at least 10 days or more from rejoining the rotation, he will meet up with the Mets tomorrow.

The move is so Willie Randolph and pitching coach Rick Peterson can get an up-close look at Martinez while he throws a bullpen session at Turner Field.

The decision comes after Martinez – sidelined since April 1 with a strained left hamstring – threw 77 pitches yesterday in 42/3 innings of an extended game against Cardinals minor leaguers in Florida. That was a jump from the 55 pitches he threw last week against Mets minor leaguers.

Omar Minaya said last week that Martinez would make at least one minor-league rehab start before returning to the Mets.
