Who am I wasting my time trying to get?

I usually only in play a couple of mystery card leagues. However, I'm planning on trying a 2014 team.

Since I'm at a disadvantage coming to the party late, can anyone give me any tips whom I should avoid simply because chances are I'll never get him?

Catcher Matt Wieters. Probably the worst kept secret in this year set. Last team, I had him in my top#5 and still couldn't get him.

Stanton is another one many people try to get.

Wieters is a free agent in my most current 2014 league. I think with a 80 million dollar cap you can try for pretty much whoever you want.

Not many would want a +2 arm at catcher I doubt.

Well not wasting time, but if you want Miggy, McCutchen, Rizzo, you'll need to place them first.

Not sure whom else people place first, but those for sure. Depends on the league and who people are prioritizing. I have 2 completely different auto leagues, one where all the top pitching was un-drafted, another where all the pitching was gone. That's part of the game

There is no player you should avoid. Any player can go undrafted.

If you are in a league with me, don't try to draft Trout or McCutcheon, Cuddyer, Hechavarria....

McCutchen might be the most popular player, or one of them. I did put him first (once) and I got him.

I checked my last 5 leagues he was picked once. Personally I thinks he's overpriced
