Mets Sign Jose Martinez

By Steve Adams | January 14, 2021 at 2:40pm CDT

2:40pm: The Mets have announced the signing. A corresponding 40-man roster move wasn’t necessary, as the Mets already had multiple open spaces.

1:46pm: The Mets have agreed to a one-year, split contract with free agent outfielder/first baseman Jose Martinez, reports USA Today’s Bob Nightengale (Twitter link). If he makes the Major League roster, he’ll receive a $1MM salary with up to $500K available in additional incentives. In the minors, he’ll earn at a $225K clip, per MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand (Twitter link). Martinez is represented by Octagon.

The 2020 season was a forgettable one for Martinez, who posted an awful .182/.265/.295 slash in 98 plate appearances between the Rays and the Cubs. That line included a particularly woeful stretch following a trade from Tampa to Chicago that saw him go hitless in 22 plate appearances as a Cub.

Prior to the 2020 season, however, Martinez was a highly productive part-time player with the Cardinals. From 2017-19, Martinez batted a combined .296/.361/.458 with 41 homers, 56 doubles and three triples in 1270 trips to the plate. His right-handed bat was a menace to left-handed pitching, in particular; Martinez owned southpaws with a .323/.401/.570 slash in that time.

Martinez still has a pair of minor league options remaining, so he doesn’t necessarily need to make the Opening Day roster out of Spring Training. He finished up the 2020 season with just over four years of service time, so he’s controllable through the 2022 season at present, although if he spends even three or four weeks in the minors, his path to free agency would be pushed back a year.

Of course, Martinez first needs to make the big league roster and reestablish himself as a credible big league hitter before that’s even a consideration. A rebound with the bat is of particular importance for the 28-year-old, as he doesn’t bring any real defensive value to the table. Martinez has ample experience in both outfield corners and at first base, but he rates as a well below-average defender at all three positions.

    He’s a bit of an odd fit for the current Mets roster from a defensive perspective, but maybe they see him as more of a PH option. They might have the roster flexibility to carry a guy like that, depending on what happens with CF and 3B.

          Well right now we don’t really have a 3B so Davis is forced to play 3B. He’ll get his at bats. If we get a 3B. Davis would go to Martinez role that I mention and Martinez would go to AAA.

        The DH in the NL is just as likely not to happen for 2021 at this point. This is a risky signing. I was expecting him to wait until he fully exhausted his AL options (or we possibly got official word that the NL would use the DH) before possibly signing with an NL team.

        How about deep do-do? Well, that’s what he was with the Cubs. But maybe he was a little unlucky with that .000 BABIP. I’m sure all the ones that should have fallen in would have been triples.

    Jose Martinez has a (-4.8) career dWAR. He did bat .305 in 534 AB for the Cards in 2018. He added 17 HR, 83 RBI, and an .821 OPS. More than anyone in the continental United States, Martinez has to pray for the universal DH in 2021. And while he’s at it, say 5 Our Fathers and 5 Hail Marys.

        Considering the Mets are clearly unwilling to let him play center field thus relegating him to the bench probably not much. I mean the Mets are seriously considering signing Albert Almora and starting him in Center field, Conforto in right, and Dom Smith in Left. Complicating matters even more is the fact that Smith & Conforto are lefties making it hard to platoon either with Conforto. Exactly where does he fit in? He’s a 4 million dollar bench player on the Mets. I’d probably offer something like Taylor Ward, he can play multiple positions Infield/outfield, platoon against lefties, and is pre- arbitration making around 575k, plus I’d throw in a minor league reliever.

          Brandon Nimmo will be the Mets starting LF if they sign Springer. Almora was just non-tendered after being demoted in 2020. He’s a 5th OF-type addition. Sandy Alderson flat out said “Dominic Smith is not an OF and ideally he won’t see time out there but if there is no DH we will”. 4 million dollar bench player lol.. he was just ranked the #5 CF in baseball by MLB.com. He’s a poor CF but he’s a top 15 OF in baseball by both fWAR and wRC+. The Mets would get a BOUNTY for 2 years of Nimmo but he’s not available

      Pete is far from as bad as he is made out to be. He would, though, be the everyday DH if it’s approved. I’ll repeat that the Mets should NOT trade prospects 3B Brett Baty, C Francisco Alvarez, RHP Matthew Allan, SS Ronny Mauricio.

      Wow I knew he wasn’t young but until I read your comment here I didn’t realize how “not young” he actually was lol. I guess given that he’s 32… his drop in numbers in 2020 could actually be him on the decline rather than just a rough season. Though to be fair most players don’t really start to decline from age at just 30/31. However in my head for whatever reason I was thinking he was more like 28/29 and thus had time to “get back on track” … I mean sure that’s still all technically true… but I guess this could be more of like a “last chance” than a “first of several” chances to right the ship and get himself back on track. Regardless of his age… I do still wish him the best and hope he can reestablish himself as the, seemingly, very solid hitter (.300+ BA and 15-20+ HR threat) he looked like just a couple seasons ago!

    Somehow, this just feels like a set-up move for a trade coming. Like sending Dom Smith to get Joe Musgraves. Or a package with an outfielder ( Nimmo) to Milwaukee to bring back Josh Hader.

        I think he said “package” with Nimmo in it, as if to clear some space for Martinez.
        I am sure he didn’t mean Nimmo alone., not Nimmo alone. His Smith for Musgraves suggestion though, does sound reasonable.

    Somehow he’s a worse outfielder than Nelson Cruz circa 2011 World Series game 6.

    Unfortunately for Mets fans Alderson is already on record saying he is “not comfortable” with Dominic Smith in LF so unless MLB and the players union agree on a universal DH the odds are currently better that Jose Martinez will be in the Mets opening day lineup instead of George Springer.

      Jose Martinez will not be in the Mets lineup opening day barring injury to Nimmo/Smith/Conforto. Sandy told Jon Heyman just yesterday that Dom isn’t an OF but without a DH he will see time out there.

        Sort of my point is that Springer won’t be either. Therefore Martinez (who’s already signed) has a better chance

    Expect the Cubs to retire #53 and will be fly on the the flag poll with the other all time Greats like Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Ron Santo, Jenkins and other.

    True Cubs legend!

      0-21 with a walk but it was a glorious walk. The cubs actually traded a decent prospect with upside for him.

        That walk that loaded the bases with 1 out against the Pirates that lead to a Kipnis strikeout and followed by Maybin flyout to end the inning against the Pirates is how legends are made.

    1b/lf and right handed.

    Well, it’s a quality depth signing. If Alonso or Dom Smith need to go on the IL, Martinez moves up. Or if JD Davis gets dealt, that’s another possibility. Not to play 3b mind you, just his bat and lf/rf/1b coverage.

    Anderson did say he wanted to restock the higher minor league levels with experience. This fits that agenda.

      Yes, and it was stated that Martinez has options left. I guess that allows Sandy to stash some older experienced players down there in Syracuse. And maybe it gives Martinez some time to find his bat again if Spring Training isn’t enough.

    The guy could hit extremely well when he was with the Cardinals. Kinda fell off when he went to Tampa and Chicago. Not a bad signing though.

    I hope Martinez can reestablish himself as a top notch offensive player. Just a couple years ago he looked like he was establishing himself as a perennial .300+ batter with 20 HR pop and possibly even potential to improve on his power numbers if given the opportunity for more consistent/regular ABs. It’d be nice to see him rediscover that potential and get himself back on track with the Mets next season. Personally I always thought he was a guy who could’ve put up better numbers if he’d gotten more ABs (in STL) but then saw everything collapse last year in TB (and then even more dramatically in CHC)… best of luck to him to hopefully right the ship and get his career back on track in NY.

    Another nice signing by the Amazins , depth , depth , depth. After trading for Lindor , NYM need to focus on filling out the minors and what not.

    I mean the goal is to make the 25 man but $225K on the 40 man in AAA is pretty solid money. If only they had the affiliate in Las Vegas and not Syracuse like the good old days. lol

    This feels like a depthy signing. I think one or two others may have said that already.
