Russell Martin To Bat Sixth

Dropping hints about Russell Martin's offensive potential, Dodgers manager Grady Little said the second-year catcher would likely move up to the No. 6 spot in the batting order. Little believes Martin has the potential to produce 15-20 homers with a healthy share of RBIs. As a rookie in 2006, Martin drove in 65 runs over 415 at-bats after getting called up from Triple-A on May 5. "He moves the ball and with a lot of authority," Little said. "He could also hit second, but right now the plan is to hit sixth, the way the club is made up."
