I'll put it this way...
Martin is to Navarro is to Arencibia as Prime Rib is to Hamburger is to Horse Manure.
The Catcher market is weak so AA should be getting calls on Navarro (below average defense or not Dionar still has a good bat for the C position). I really hope that the Jays prioritize getting a real second baseman first. I know AA's proclivities seem to lead him to trade catchers for RP's but please resist and get someone that insures we don't have Iztarius/Goins/Tolleson/Kawasaki (I love Kawasaki but I'd love a championship calibre team more).
... and no not Devon Travis. I don't want to put my trust in someone with no experience above AA ball. I'm nervious enough about Pompey in CF thank you very much.
