Fantasy Analysis
Torrealba has seen action in 21 games this season and is certainly not an everyday option behind the plate for the Rangers with Mike Napoli on the roster. The 33-year-old should be viewed as a low-end AL-only Fantasy option. (Updated 05/23/2012).

05/12/2012 01:19 Hamilton hits 2 more HRs, Rangers win
Josh Hamilton hit two more home runs, Yu Darvish struck out seven and the Texas Rangers beat the Los Angeles Angels 10-3 in a rain-interrupted game Friday night when C.J. Wilson faced only five batters against his old team.
Yorvit Torrealba certainly had an offseason to forget this past winter. Torrealba finished the 2011 campaign -- his first with the Texas Rangers -- with seven homers and a career-high 27 doubles while boasting a .273 batting average. He averaged nearly a hit per game as he collected 108 hits in 113 outings as the Rangers secured a berth in the World Series. However, he was plagued by turmoil during the offseason as he was suspended for 66 games in the Venezuelan League for striking an umpire during a game in December. The suspension does not carry over to Major League Baseball, but the Rangers have discussed possible disciplinary actions for the 33-year-old. This comes at a tough time for Torrealba as he was already expected to lose playing time following the emergence of Texas C Mike Napoli in last year’s postseason. Torrealba obviously benefits from competing in hitter-friendly ballparks, but without sufficient playing time, he should only be considered a worthwhile Fantasy option in deeper AL-only formats for the 2012 campaign.
