| Martin epitomizes the power/power package that scouts look for from a prototypical third baseman. His arm strength is among the best in the nation, as he has thrown 95 from the mound, which also gives him value as a pitcher. His power at the plate is what sets him apart, as he hits tape measure shots with a pull swing tailor-made for crushing fastballs over the left-field fence. While his big swing is going to leave him susceptible to some lofty strikeout totals, his power comes very easily from a balanced swing and open-legged stance. His power and athleticism makes him similar to former slugging and Gold Glove third baseman Matt Williams. |
