Grabbing emerging players off the waiver wire is one of the most important aspects of having a championship team in your fantasy league. You need to be on top of all the news around the league in the first month and be the first one to pickup these players. Last year, I won my league and a good reason was getting Ryan Braun for free off the waiver wire. This season, Braun was a 1st round pick in most leagues and those are the quality of players that can be had for practically nothing.

Last season was definitely a disappointment for the Mets. They were one of the favored teams to compete and they dropped the ball at the end. They have two of the best young players in baseball with Reyes and Wright. Those are two players you can certainly build a championship team around. Pitching again was the main reason they haven’t been as successful as they should have been.
