    Russell Martin is better than your shitty catcher

    And no, just because you have Victor Martinez on your ****ing fantasy baseball team doesn't give you the credibility to get on the soapbox with V-Mart's stat sheet. Alas, unlike V-Mart, R-Mart can actually throw out base stealers at the league level.

    Who cares. Michael Barrett would beat the shit out of Russell Martin.

    If Barrett can't even beat the shit out of a pussy pitcher, I doubt he can take Canada's hardest mother****er around.

    Re: Russell Martin is better than your shitty catcher

    Brian McCann's numbers are down this year but his is still better than both Molina and Martin. And Salty's numbers are awesome.

    .314 AVG, 2 HR, 8 RBIs, .360 OBP, .457 SLG in 26 games. Which he is also seeing some action at 1B, which has not affected his hitting.

    Anybody want Kendall? You can always have a pitcher hit for him if need be.

    Both their names begin with Mart-, therefore I must use it, H-Wood.

    Re: Russell Martin is better than your shitty catcher

    Just as an aside, the best way to give baseball players nicknames is to take the first syllable of their first and last name and use this formula:

    (first name syllable)y (last name syllable)s

    Miguel Cabrera = Miggy Cabs
    Alex Rodriguez = Aly Rods
    Russel Martin = Russy Marts
    Victor Martinez = Vicy Marts
    Jarod Saltalamaccia = Jary Salts

    That formula became outdated since Joey Peeps got whacked.

    that formula will never be outdated
    especially when it produces things as great as Cristy Guzs or Felly Lops.

    I think Martin has really come into his own. There really seems to be a lot of good, young, rising stars at the catcher's position these days!!!

    Russell Martin is the best catcher in the league right now. Although if Joe Mauer wasn't hurt for a period he would be up there as well.
