With the Cubs this season, Martin had a 4.31 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and an ERA-plus of 98 over 34 appearances.Martin is an experienced postseason performer with a 2.19 ERA over 14 appearances with the Braves.
McKinstry spent parts of the past three seasons with the Dodgers but saw limited playing time. He had just one hit in 11 at-bats at the major-league level this season but batted .335 with a .904 OPS in 48 games at Triple-A Oklahoma City.
