Non-waiver trade deadline: 6 days, 8 hours, 0 minutes

Martin informally named Dodgers' leader

Anyone who reads this blog on a semi-regular basis knows that I am a huge fan of Dodgers' catcher (and 2007 All-Star hopeful), Russell Martin. If you have any doubts about this man's huge abilities and sky-high potential, you owe it to yourself to check out this ESPN article and accompanying video.

Doesn't this just make you want to shake Elijah Dukes? The troubled (and currently inactive) Devil Ray could really learn something from emulating Martin's professionalism and mature poise. Both of these guys have the potential to net millions, but Dukes' is risking it all with his bad attitude.
