  • Santana can handle heavy workload: Coming off a major knee injury in 2010, Indians C Carlos Santana appeared in 155 games in 2011, but he appeared at catcher in only 95 games. "What he was able to demonstrate last year is he's capable of handling the volume," GM Chris Antonetti said. "He led our team in games played last year while producing at a high level, and also continuing to develop and emerge as a quality receiver behind the plate." Santana produced 27 homers, 35 doubles, 79 RBI and 97 walks. Although, he hit just .239. "We didn't make that much out of the batting average," Cleveland manager Manny Acta said during the Winter Meetings in December. "He walked 97 times. These people sometimes get caught up in the old batting average stat, but the old batting average is only relevant if you don't walk at all. And the fact that he kept his on-base percentage above .350, that was good enough for us. If you go and look into the statistics, this guy, he was in a very select group."

    Fantasy Analysis
    We agree with Acta's assessment that Santana is in a select group and could only get better. "We know how scary things are going to be," Acta said of Santana's potential. Antonetti added that the Indians have talked about potentially moving Santana to first base on a more full-time basis if it benefits the team, but as of now Santana will see most of his starts behind the plate. "Right now, our plans are for Carlos to catch," Antonetti said. "There are a variety of different ways we can go at first base, depending upon how things go in spring training. I think we've considered all the way through Plan Q." Fantasy owners will want Santana to stay at catcher, so he keeps his catcher-eligibility beyond the 2012 season. He has much more Fantasy value as a catcher than a first baseman. Santana is easily a top 5 Fantasy catcher and early-round Fantasy selection.
