Might be time to trust in Burrell on your Fantasy Team

Pat BurrellPat Burrell, OF, Rays: When a guy in his early 30s has hit at least 29 homers for four straight seasons, you're expecting more than six dingers through the first three months of the season. But Burrell had a nasty neck injury that he tried to play through all year, and only now is there evidence of him starting to get back to being his old self. If you need average, you're barking up the wrong Ray, but with three homers this month, he's back to a power pace he's had for his entire career. I expect another dozen homers between now and the end of September, and I bet they can be had cheap.
