I'm worried about his knees so a DH might be in his future. That said, he had a much better arm than I expected. Hitting wise, he looked really good in spurts and made some nice adjustments after hitting his first slump. @Its Gonna Happen I agree, Martinez looked like a major leaguer from the get-go.

Maybe that's what happens when you're used to seeing Carlos Lee roaming the left field pastures, but I was impressed with the guy most people made out to be slow footed. I think we have a special player in Martinez. Watching him last year, he looked pretty fast to me.
