His 2011 regular season definitely flew under the radar (in only 360+ ABs), and he's raked the entire post season.

I'm having trouble thinking of another catcher I'd take over him, in either an OPS or AVG league.

I would draft him as the first catcher personally. It is almost a shame he is now a WS hero because his stock is rising too much and I wanted his stud numbers at a semi-reasonable price.

However, guys like McCann, Santana, Posey, and Mauer will be near him. I also Jesus Montero next year (assuming he plays and has catcher eligibility because he has pop).

He hit a homer in every 12 at-bats this year.

Mauer will be nowhere near the top fantasy catchers.

Just watching these playoffs and being a Napoli owner in fantasy, its rare that someone goes from an average spot to the top of a fantasy positional rankings.

Napoli's greatest asset is that he is eligible at C, 1B and DH.

I actually traded him away when he was hurt along with a slumping Ryan Howard and Ryan Roberts for Kinsler and McCann. McCann killed me cause he got hurt and couldn't do didly squat when he got back. But now I have McCann and Posey (C/1B) as keepers for next year. Aint mad.
