Marty on his three-year contract extension

Here's what Marty had to say about the contract extension.....

“It didn’t take very long. Obviously I don’t want to go anywhere else. I’m not trying to hold them up for all the money in the world. So it was a very easy contract negotiation between my representative Reuven Katz and (Reds executive vice president and chief operating officer) John Allen.”

“At the end of three years I’ll take stock of my situation and if I still feel like I’m physically capable of traveling full time and carrying the ultimate workload I would think about it. But I’m also inclined to think about not traveling.”
