Victor Martinez - C - Detroit Tigers
Feb. 7, 2013 - 3:00 PM ET

Victor Martinez told reporters on Thursday afternoon that he is fully recovered from left knee surgery.

"I'm ready to go, man," said Martinez. "I'm ready to go." The 34-year-old slugger has already reported to the Tigers' spring training complex in Lakeland, Florida and is quickly rounding into a massive fantasy sleeper for the 2013 season. He hit .330/.380/.470 with 12 home runs and 103 RBI in 145 games with the Tigers in 2011 before missing all of 2012 due to major knee problems.
