as i've said, if martinez is cleveland's immediate future at catcher, they will be best served to deal shoppach as his value will not be higher. not to mention i believe he's coming up for arbitration in the near future.
chances are, one of the two will happen:
1. he'll revert back to his historic numbers, decrease his trade value, and you'll complain for not trading him when his value was high.
2. he'll stay, and possibly maintain his current trend, get a buttload of cash in arbitration and then walk, and you'll complain that cleveland should have traded him when his value was highest.

I will
not complain if they do not trade Shopach. My question to you is who is going to play first base next year

if you are not going to keep Garko.
The young catchers who will be available in 2010 will not help us next year if something happens to Victor.
