  has twice approached catcher Russell Martin about an extension, and has been denied.  Martin will be arbitration-eligible after this season and should add an extra zero to his $500,000 salary, at least.  Angels second baseman Howie Kendrick would consider a long-term offer, and GM Tony Reagins isn't opposed to long-term deals for
