Why does this guy suck? I have an offer on the table to give me Berkman for Russell Martin. I already have Victor Martinez (I picked up Martin when Vic was injured early in the year) at C, and could use a power hitting OF like Berkman...if he actually starts hitting for power. I don't know what's wrong with Berkman, and thus if it's worth taking a risk on him. I would like to move Martin, because I don't have much room for him...
C-Vic
1B-Ryan Howard
3B-David Wright
UTIL-Chipper Jones (when he's off the DL)
There's no real place to put him once Chipper is off the DL. Is it worth taking the chance on Berkman, or could I get more for Martin? What is it that's even wrong with Berkman, why is he hitting like Sean Burroughs?

So you guys think I should do it then? There is another team that desperately needs a catcher, and has Crawford and Holliday as OF'ers. I was thinking of Holliday, the only problem is the team owner has no concept of fair trades and tries to scam everyone.
One thing about Berkman I noticed is that for the past 5-6 years, he's a had a great year followed by a down year...this would be his down year.
