Daniel Joseph Martin (born November 11, 1990) is an American professional baseball first baseman currently playing for the Worcester Dirt Dogs of the United States Baseball League (USBL). He stands at 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 224 pounds. He bats and throws right-handed.
==Life and career==
Martin was born in Oak Ridge, Tennessee on November 11, 1990 to John and Carol Martin. He was drafted in the 4th round, 116th overall in 2011 by the Worcester Dirt Dogs.
An outstanding defensive first baseman, Martin has the best fielding rating at the position in the entire league (85). Although his 69 arm rating is not used to his full potential while playing first base (he does not have any other secondary position), Martin could also become a serviceable third baseman in an emergency situation, provided the manager adds the secondary.
His 70 power and 68 contact make him slightly below average offensively for a first baseman. However, he has hit at least 15 home runs and 50 RBI in his last three seasons in a row, so his offensive numbers are definitely improving.
