Tim Young
MLB Soup		@timcyoung “The only thing keeping Carlos Santana out of the top Catcher spot is actually his best talent. See, in 2011, Santana's walk rate was a ridiculous 20%. If you're playing in a league that values BB or OBP, you need to get Santana on your team. However, in a standard 5x5 league, Santana's walks really don't help you. He will, however hit a whole bunch of HR, and his AVG will surely be higher than the .239 he posted last season.”

Derek Gerberich
Midwest Sports Fans		@FantasyMSF“Exact same line as Wieters, with a worse average.”
2/12/2012
Jeff Boggis
Fantasy Sports Empires		@JeffBoggis “Ranked 2nd among catchers with 33 home runs in 2011. The .239 average is concerning. Look for .250 BA in 2012. Also qualifies at 1B. ”
2/07/2012
James Meyerriecks
Fantasy Info Central		@ficsports“His minor league profile suggests that he should improve significantly on last year's .239 average.”

Brien Bonneville
The Fake Baseball		@BBonneville“Has to be the #1 catcher off the board. Lower avg last year but he puts up good numbers and plays more than most catchers. ”

Zach Greubel
WinMyFantasyLeague		@ZachGreubel “Santana proved himself to be the go-to-guy in the Indians' lineup. He also proved he could thrive at the catcher position after a nasty injury.”
