Another thing with Russel Martin, is there is no way he could possibly be slower than Navarro. It was so frustrating to watch Navarro hit a really nice line drive but still be thrown out at first base. Martin is obviously an upgrade, but I would have to agree that their is more urgent issues that should be taken care of first, especially with the limited budget the Blue Jays seem to have. I thought Navarro did just fine for us last year, especially in clutch hitting situations.
