What to do with Russell Martin?

PrintOkay, so here's the deal. I'm in a 10 man keeper league and my starting catcher is Russell Martin of the Dodgers. There has been no question that "R-Mart" has struggled this season with a .270 BA/.387 OBP/`8 RBIs/19 runs. Not really top-notch, especially compared to his previous years. But what should I do with him? Should I look to try and trade him? Or, should I try and wait and see if he picks it up?

Martin
If you can get 4th/5th round value, I’d deal him. If not, I’d look for a temporary fill-in. Which catchers are in the pool.
There aren't too many fill-in catchers
There are Jason Veriteck, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Pablo Sandoval, and some others with similar numbers as those 3.

Oddly
Martin’s numbers don’t really knock any of those out of the game. The 6 Sbs from Rmart are nice though. Assuming Sandoval’s health, i’d rather have him right now. Saltalamacchia next and finally Varitek who has 8 knocks so far.
