But what a player does in the minors doesn’t always translate into what he does in the bigs. And if Ellis can’t hack it there is Lucas May. And if May can’t do it, someone else will be coming up. It is unfortunate, and somewhat of a puzzle; that Russel Martin is getting worse instead of better. So there is good reason for him to be looking over his shoulder. The only consolation for Russel is that many catchers in MLB are performing at about his same level, sub par.
