The Mets should consider signing Russell Martin if the Yankees decide not to keep him.

Martin has handled playing in New York City, even living through heavy criticism this season when he hovered around the Mendoza Line.

The Mets are also desperate for power and Martin's 21 home runs ranked eighth among catchers this season.

His early season struggles lowered his value, but he has rebounded and Chris Iannetta's recent three-year, $15.5 million extension with the Angels has set the market value.
