August slash line: 378/506/636
(For reference, Jordan Luplow August: 200/300/343)
Martin had a down year in 2022, but he OPSed 796 in 2021 in the minors and his OPS is up to 841 this year. He walks almost as much as he strikes out (25:27 this year), and he is stealing at an 83% success rate across his minor league career.
I get that there is some complication with impending returns of Buxton and Castro, but Martin is on fire right now. Would love to see him join Julien and Wallner as another batter with good plate discipline on the roster.
Call him up before the calendar turns to September!
