Fantasy Impact:

Martin's biggest asset is his speed, and to have him at the top of the order was perfect for fantasy owners. But Martin does not take walks (just two in 41 plate appearances) and was hitting just .154 to start the season. A drop to eighth in the order, if it becomes permanent, does severe damage to his fantasy value.
