Russell Martin, Jr. is a catcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Martin has broken the record for stolen bases by a catcher with the Dodgers. Martin's career as a Major League Baseball player began in 2006. During that year, he hit .282. Convinced they had a find, the Dodgers stationed him in 2007 as their starting catcher, where he has been the past two seasons. During Martin's three years in the majors, the Dodgers have made two postseason berths. In 2002, Martin was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 17th round. At the end of the 2007 season, he was awarded with the National League Gold Glove Award and the Silver Slugger award. He also played in the 2007 and 2008 All-Star games. On January 20, 2009, Martin signed a one-year, $3.9 million contract to avoid salary arbitration. The deal is the largest ever awarded to a catcher in his first year of arbitration.
