thoughts on Ethan Martin

[colts1888]

What is your guys opinion on Ethan Martin. I saw alot of reports and am really liking this guy. Just want some opinions on this guy.

he's kind of been the guy I've been looking at picking up. but i thought the same thing last year with Chris Withrow...

His cards are not commanding what they should.

Im buying him up alot recently I think I can get a small stash going. He is my real first crack at prospecting. Just want to se if I m getting in over my head.

He's a fine prospect and being a Dodger doesn't hurt.

But being hurt does.

Nothing like a knee injury.

He's also the brother of the pitcher who threw the ball at the ump and had the catcher duck out of the way.

I wouldn't give up on WIthrow yet. Granted he was injured, but I believe he still has time to get things going and perform well.

The same could be said of Lambo when he was drafted and he's turned it around.

Martin's a major talent but you should stay away from his cards and try to turn your focus away from all Dodger prospects if you can....just trying to help. :lol:

I tend not to put much weight on what "Anonymous" says in an article comment or a message board.

That's where I read about him being involved in the throwing at the ump incident. I wouldn't worry too much because there are comments both ways. Even if it is true about him having an ego or drinking it isn't exactly out of the norm from the high school jocks I knew. Sometimes a little bit of arrogance in sports is a good thing.

after treading this article he reminds me of Delmon Young. Throwing a bat at an ump. If his prices can command what Youngs prices once did Im a happy guy. Thanks to those who put their input in. Ive decided to take a chance with him. Hope he pans out!

Does anyone know when is supposed to be pitching again?

Sounds like another Kyle Drabek.

I like him as an everyday player not as a pitcher.
