Russell Martin (C), LAD

News: Martin was moved down to 6th in the batting order for the Dodgers with the return of Rafael Furcal. He still managed a run and RBI while going 1-3 at the plate.

Views: This certainly reduces the amount of runs Martin will score, but he should still be better than average at catcher. It's unfortunate that Pierre, who is hitting .186 and hardly walks gets to stay at the top of the lineup, while Martin, who is batting .324, gets moved down to 6th.

I'm a little pissed at that move. Still, hitting 6th isn't that bad. He'll have decent chances to hit some RBIs but yeah, his runs will suffer a little bit.
