Andy Manuel Marte (born October 21, 1983) is a Dominican professional baseball third baseman for the KT Wiz of the Korea Baseball Organization. He has played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians and Arizona Diamondbacks. He currently plays in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) for the KT Wiz.
Marte signed as a free agent with the Atlanta Braves in 2000, and succeeded at every level of the farm system. In 2005 Marte hit .275 with 20 home runs and 74 RBI in 109 games in Triple-A, but hit only .140 in 57 at bats with the Braves, and was blocked at third base by Chipper Jones, who had recently signed a contract extension.
Marte was traded by the Atlanta Braves on December 8, 2005, to the Boston Red Sox for shortstop Edgar Rentería and cash considerations.
Later that off-season, on January 27, 2006, the Red Sox traded him to the Cleveland Indians along with relief pitcher Guillermo Mota, catcher Kelly Shoppach, Randy Newsom, and cash considerations for center fielder Coco Crisp, catcher Josh Bard, and relief pitcher David Riske.
You've got me shakin', time out
I thought I had You figured out
But I've been mistaken somehow
Thought I'd learned the truth by now
I guess I've been thinkin' way too much
Could be I'm out of touch
Gotta get You
(Into my heart and out of my head)
Sometimes they're just so far apart
(Into my heart and out of my head)
I need Your help to find a way
Into my heart
I keep my distance, my pride
Such a clever place to hide
What a sad existence in my mind
Another precious waste of time
The best way to change my mind I've found
And turn my life around
Is to get You
(Into my heart and out of my head)
No mind games, I'll take love instead
(Into my heart and out of my head)
I need Your help to find a way
(I need Your help)
Into my heart
Oh it would be so easy just to lock my heart away
Turn my back and I would never have to say
Long as I live, I need you
To feel the way that I do
Oh! Oh! Ooooo!
(Into my heart and out of my head)
Sometimes they're just so far apart
(Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way)
(Into my heart and out of my head)
Oh! I'll take love instead
(Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head)
Ooooo!
(I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
I'm out of my head!
