OTC 482 - Live from FPAZ '24

Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung [https://twitter.com/chadyoung]) participated in the Pitcher List Podcast Network mock draft [https://clickydraft.com/draftapp/board/275180] and he and Pete (@PeteBBaseball [https://twitter.com/PeteBBaseball]) will use the results of that draft to identify some interesting keeper targets for 2025 drafts. Then we take a look at a co-managed dynasty team that needs some cuts to get legal.  we dive into arbitration for the Keep or Kut listener league.

Timestamps

5:38 - Using the Pitcher List Podcast Network draft to identify interesting keeper targets for 2025.

8:34 - Targets from the first four rounds include 4th round Wyatt Langford [https://pitcherlist.com/player/wyatt-langford/] and Brent Rooker [https://pitcherlist.com/player/brent-rooker/], the upside on Jazz Chisholm [https://pitcherlist.com/player/jazz-chisholm-jr/], plus comparing the keeper upside of Garrett Crochet [https://pitcherlist.com/player/garrett-crochet/] and Logan Gilbert [https://pitcherlist.com/player/logan-gilbert/]

17:44 - Rounds 5-10 featuring Luis Robert Jr. [https://pitcherlist.com/player/luis-robert-jr/] in the 9th and Yoshinobu Yamamoto [https://pitcherlist.com/player/yoshinobu-yamamoto/] in the same round, and the return of Shane McClanahan [https://pitcherlist.com/player/shane-mcclanahan/]

26:15 - Luke Weaver [https://pitcherlist.com/player/luke-weaver/] and Dylan Crews [https://pitcherlist.com/player/dylan-crews/] jump out in rounds 11-15, maybe because this range is a little weak, but Parker Meadows [https://pitcherlist.com/player/parker-meadows/] deserves a shout as well and there is a ton of pitching upside.

34:49 - Rounds 16-20 feature Jasson Dominguez [https://pitcherlist.com/player/jasson-dominguez/] and Spencer Arrighetti [https://pitcherlist.com/player/spencer-arrighetti/], lots of young upside including  Jordan Lawlar [https://pitcherlist.com/player/jordan-lawlar/], some bounceback closers, and even Bowden Francis [https://pitcherlist.com/player/bowden-francis/]

40:05 - The final three rounds always get weak, but Chad grabbed Roki Sasaki in the final round and we both think Isaac Paredes [https://pitcherlist.com/player/isaac-paredes/] and Eury Perez [https://pitcherlist.com/player/eury-perez] could have gone earlier.

44:12 - We need to cut 5 to get a dynasty roster legal - and we have to debate how we will use David Fry [https://pitcherlist.com/player/david-fry/]

48:15 - Reviewing our entire offense, including obvious drops in Hunter Renfroe [https://pitcherlist.com/player/hunter-renfroe/] and Dylan Carlson [https://pitcherlist.com/player/dylan-carlson/] and cut candidates in J,P, Crawford [https://pitcherlist.com/player/jp-crawford/] and Ke’Bryan Hayes [https://pitcherlist.com/player/kebryan-hayes/]

53:11 - And our pitching, with a bunch of super clear keepers, plus some questions about Ben Lively [https://pitcherlist.com/player/ben-lively/], Javier Assad [https://pitcherlist.com/player/javier-assad/], and Simeon Woods Richardson [https://pitcherlist.com/player/simeon-woods-richardson/]
