Jenrry Mejia (RP, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

ANALYSIS: Don't let the last two innings scare you - while Mejia gave up 3 ER, he still locked down a save and didn't blow a save in the other appearance. Since taking over the closer role, all Mejia has done is, well....get nasty.  He's thrown 12.1 IP, with a 13:5 K:BB ratio and only 3 ER while racking up 5 saves. He is pitching lights out and in the Mets division, they'll be in enough close games to give Mejia plenty of save chances. Mejia has a ton of job security and is putting his talent to work. If you need saves, and Mejia is on your waiver wire, and you still own a guy like Grant Balfour, make the switch immediately and enjoy Mejia's Kupside and saves.
