Fantasy Analysis
Drew had one of the worst seasons in his career in 2011, appearing in just 81 games for Boston and hitting .222. While he still had good pop late in his career, Drew struggled for consistency the last two seasons and also dealt with injuries throughout his career. If Drew were to play again in 2012, it probably would have been as a rotational outfielder. If he doesn't retire, he will be a league-specific Fantasy option. (Updated 01/24/2012).
