Martinez was pretty productive in 2018.

More chum for Syracuse, most likely.

DH-depth. Don't give him a glove. Look at his offense WAR and defensive WAR: https://www.fangraphs.com/players/jose-martinez/7996/stats?position=1B/OF https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Mart%C3%ADnez_(baseball,_born_1988) https://twitter.com/djshort/status/1349804159206354952

Martinez was pretty productive in 2018. Those 2020 numbers, on the other, hand, somehow make Billy Hamilton look more appealing.

if this were a gauranteed MLB deal wasting a 25 (26?)-man spot it would seem like a blah move - but as a split contract I like the depth it provides at the back end of the 40 man roster

Mainly what Martinez does is tees up LHPs ... while not being horrible vs RHPs either 283/347/418//765 career vs RHP 307/382/534//915 career vs LHP Now virtually all of that came from 2017 and 2018 so it remains to be seen what he has left (tho is only 32 y/o) but even Scott Hairston didn't have those kinds of numbers vs LHPs during his two seasons as a NYM and I remember his tenure in Queens as a guy seemingly put on this earth for the sole purpose of abusing southpaws.

He's basically Davis with even less defensive value. Barring an injury to Davis or Alonso, or a last-minute switch to the universal DH, I don't anticipate much of an impact.

Well, two Davises are better than one. At this moment, he's Syracuse's best bat, so he's more than likely to see some time in the bigs.

Jose will get some MLB time with the first non pitcher Mets injury of the year, like Junish.
