MLB in Brief: Russell Martin and the Expos | Roman Anthony and Garrett Crochet

Russell Martin and the Expos

Tim Raines, Larry Walker, Delino DeShields, and Henry Rodriguez are among his favorite players who have played for the team.

Roman Anthony and Garrett Crochet

Both are struggling right now.

In the next couple of days, Crochet is likely to undergo more testing to see if he can start throwing again. Really, no update on Roman Anthony. The team continues to wait for his hand to heal enough so he can make a swinging motion without discomfort in his wrist.
