“has saw 625+ PA in each of the last two seasons, but he is 35 yrs old ”

“got it together in the 2nd half of the season hitting .278 with 13 HR”

“Age starting to concern (35 in June), but coming off .901 OPS campaign”

 

“There?s something to be said about consistency. The elder statesman of the top 10 is going to deliver in four categories and throw in some steals for good measure.”

“We're not ready to give up on Santana, who showed what he's capable of in the second half of last season (13 HR, 46 RBI).”

“Aramis is always one of the hottest hitters of in 2nd half of every Fantasy Baseball season. 2012 was no different as he hit 17 HRs post All-Star Break. 10 HRs pre All-Star Break. He will likely hit 30 HRs and knock in 100 RBIs while hitting near .300. They do not get much better than Aramis.”

“Carlos started last season out ICE COLD before getting hot in the end to save himself with 18 HRs and nearly 80 RBIs. The batting average was horrible at .252, and if there is a chance to grab Santana as a lower valued player. Now would be that time. 30 HRs is easily in his future every year.”

“If you can wait out his low stretches, he'll carry your team for months out of the season.”

“Santana is much more valuable in leagues that value OBP, as he doesn't carry an impressive AVG. Tough to argue with anything else, though.”
