Piazza31 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Anybody else think Russell Martin may have enough left in the tank to warrent a one year flyer on? I know we signed Buck, but Martin has played 3B/C/1B in his career I believe and could possibly be a 5 game a week guy for us. Plus, he's 26 or 27. What do you fellas think? This is what the Dodgers have in mind for him according to MLBTraderumors.com "“They want to continue discussions with the idea that Russ could come back and catch, play second base and third and a little bit out of outfield to see if he likes something like that in the event he ever wants to transition from behind the plate,� Colleran said."

Schnellders Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 The past 2 years he hasn't contributed much at all with his bat. I would rather spend any money we have left elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piazza31 Posted December 3, 2010 Author Share Posted December 3, 2010 I view him being a great fallback at many positions. If he actually played 2B before, it's worth it. Fallback at C, 2B, 3B, and an OF spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puma Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 He's not nearly athletic enough to play 2b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsLou Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 He's going to catch for a big contender, like the Yankees, and cost way more than what is worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
