K ꓘ 154 - Mock Draft Keepers and Dynasty Cuts

Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung) participated in the Pitcher List Podcast Network mock draft and he and Pete (@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 and Brent Rooker, the upside on Jazz Chisholm, plus comparing the keeper upside of Garrett Crochet and Logan Gilbert

17:44 - Rounds 5-10 featuring Luis Robert Jr. in the 9th and Yoshinobu Yamamoto in the same round, and the return of Shane McClanahan

26:15 - Luke Weaver and Dylan Crews jump out in rounds 11-15, maybe because this range is a little weak, but Parker Meadows deserves a shout as well and there is a ton of pitching upside.

34:49 - Rounds 16-20 feature Jasson Dominguez and Spencer Arrighetti, lots of young upside including  Jordan Lawlar, some bounceback closers, and even 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 and 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

48:15 - Reviewing our entire offense, including obvious drops in Hunter Renfroe and Dylan Carlson and cut candidates in J,P, Crawford and Ke’Bryan Hayes

53:11 - And our pitching, with a bunch of super clear keepers, plus some questions about Ben Lively, Javier Assad, and Simeon Woods Richardson
