On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 97th of 112 of the 112 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer. At 33 Martínez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Martínez missed 3 games through injury (lower-body, international duty) out of roughly 34 this season. The 30 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Martínez is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
14 goals in 30 appearances (0.47 per game) — double figures playing for a mid-table side (10th of 15). Add 2 assists for 16 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 16.6, Martínez carries the 97th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 112. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.77 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~9), then tapers with age. At 33, Martínez sits on 3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Martínez's projected Rating — 16.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
