    If he can hit the Mendoza line it's a vast improvement.

    Seriously. If not Martin, I'll take any catcher with a pulse. Just please don't let me watch another season of Ellis and Butera.

    it really wouldn't take much to be an improvement over our catchers, we literally have the worst catcher group in baseball, THE WORST!

    I'd rather have a Canadian cunt than this .180 bullshit with bad defense.

    Might have something to do with the GM....I'm not sure. And why is everyone so positive that Martin is going to be available ?
    The Pirates have a great rookie C waiting in the wings, do they?
    Theoretically, the Pirates could be world champs...they just might make Martin a really good offer behind that, and he may have written off the Dodgers forever.
    However, I think if he does come over, he will be, at least, great the first year.
    It was ineteresting last night to hear the comments on why AJ sucks right now, and how with the off season, next year he will be better again.
    Sounded hopeful, but not a lock...but does have some logic to what he said (Orel or Nomar, IDK which it was ).

    If AJ wins the NLCS MVP and World Series MVP, he should just retire and become a coach because that'll be his biggest accomplishment.

    One post season won't make up for another terrible year at catcher.

    Bill Russell was the worst manager ever.

    Its no secret that AJ has been terrible both offensively and defensively. With Jenna's resurgence on both sides of the game, should the Dodgers go after him and keep AJ as backup/CK personal catcher?

    I bet NZ would be ecstatic if that happens...

    Yes. We discussed this a while ago, and the main point was how there was no one else. Our eight hitter is a double play/groundout machine.

    There is no better option outside of Russ.
