Fantasy Analysis
Narveson's hip issue was previously unreported, but it might help explain why he had an 11.05 ERA in six playoff appearances. Then again, it's not like he's normally an ace either, which is why he was the starting pitcher forced to work out of the bullpen in the playoffs. Narveson has shown flashes of potential at times and compiled a 3.86 ERA over his final 13 regular-season appearances, including 11 starts, but he's the type of pitcher who'll be on and off the waiver wire all year in Fantasy. You shouldn't plan to draft him in mixed leagues. (Updated 10/25/2011).

Albert Pujols hit an RBI double during a four-run first inning and the St. Louis bullpen bailed out Chris Carpenter as the Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 on Wednesday night for a 2-1 edge in the NL Championship Series.
Chris Narveson proved to be a viable option in the rotation for the Brewers again in 2011. He went 6-5 with a 4.75 ERA over 18 starts in the first half and won five of his 10 starts after the All-Star break, while posting a 3.94 ERA over that span. He has posted double-digit wins each of the last two seasons with an ERA under 5.00. The left-hander underwent hip surgery in October but is expected to be ready for the start of spring training, and is slated as the No. 5 starter for the Brewers. While Narveson does not post the best numbers in Fantasy, he benefits from a potent lineup in Milwaukee and can be used as a low-end option. Target the 30-year-old in mainly NL-only formats on Draft Day. (Updated 1/25/12)
