Martinez is not an ordinary high school draft prospect. As a sophomore, he
looked like he was elite and was well above his peers. He compared favorably
with players that were two years older than him and that is rare in the prep
ranks. Since then, Martinez has done nothing to diminish his skill set as an
elite draft prospect. The problem is, many others have shown those skills now
as well.
He has a strong, smooth powerful swing that is short to the ball but stays in
the zone a long time. With that swing, he should hit for a high average at
any level. As for the power, it should come. He will always hit a good amount
of extra base hits but over-the-fence power will take time to develop. He has
very good defensive abilities. He has good blocking skills, a strong accurate
arm and a quick release. He should be at least average behind the dish as
long as his lower half doesn't thicken up too fast. As a runner, he is well
below average, which of course is not unusual for a catcher.
I like Martinez a lot but I don't know that he will go as high in the draft
as previously expected. His bat is great but I don't know if his defense
behind the plate will stay good enough for him to remain a full time catcher
if he bulks up. He doesn't have the speed to play anywhere else besides
catcher and his height doesn't fit first base well. I have some concerns and
I think other teams will too. It just takes one to fully believe and take him
high. He is very polished and could move quickly for a prep catcher, which is
like saying a glacier is moving faster than most. He may not be in the top 3
prep back stops come draft day. That said, I doubt he reaches college at
Southern California and I would think he goes in the back half of the first
round.
