Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung) and Pete (@PeteBBaseball) go through an extended Head-to-Head Heroes segment and breakdown a couple of Chad's recent deals by providing insightful analysis on quite a few names.5:25 - Head to head heroes of the week: Merrill Kelly and Will Benson.16:07 - Is this a Josh Jung breakout or a fluke?26:21 - Pete Crow-Armstrong is having a monster season. Will he be able to sustain the power and batting average that he is putting forward?42:24 - Chad made a big trade in one of his leagues. He traded his Mookie Betts, Seiya Suzuki, and Justin Steele for Jarren Duran, Bo Bichette, Bailey Ober, Tomoyuki Sugano, and a pick upgrade. How did he do?59:01 - Chad also traded Kerry Carpenter and Adael Amador for Corbin Burnes. Pete thinks this is a huge win for Chad, he isn't ready to give up on Burnes as an ace despite the dropoff in Ks the last year+.Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | TuneIn | Google Podcasts | RSSConnect: Twitter | keeporkut@gmail.com | Join PL+Get PL+ and join our Discord: https://pitcherlist.com/plusGet PL+ and join our Discord: https://pitcherlist.com/plus Join: PL+ | PL ProProud member of the Pitcher List Podcast Network

Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung) and Pete (@PeteBBaseball) take a look at a slew of hitters who followed solid 2023s up with terrible (or, in some cases, just not-as-great) 2024s.7:42 - Chad's Head-to-Head Hero is Wyatt Langford to close out the season. Pete went with Jonathan Aranda.20:15 - Ronald Acuña Jr., Jose Altuve, Matt Olson, Freddie Freeman, and Corey Seager are all studs who technically took a statistical step back. Any concerns here?22:45 - Some veterans that fell from being good in 2023 to bad in 2024 were Marcus Semien, Ozzie Albies, JD Martinez, and Bo Bichette. What are we doing with this group?32:08 - What are we doing with Luis Robert Jr. after this terrible season?41:04 - Some players that kind of broke-out in 2023 were Nolan Jones, Chas McCormick, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Zack Gelof, and Christopher Morel.

Keep or Kut - Chad (@chadyoung) looks at some high priced players on his roster and asks Pete (@PeteBBaseball): Can I cut this star? Who is an obvious cut in the off-season, but maybe needs to be held for now? Who can you give up, even if it means someone else gets him half price?5:33 - Pete goes a little less obvious with his H2H hero: Pablo Lopez. And Chad just made a series of trades involving Lopez.14:09 - Chad picks Lawrence Butler as his H2H hero, leading us to wonder, for 2025 - Butler or Adolis Garcia?26:42 - Can Chad cut $36 Christian Yelich or $49 Fernando Tatis Jr., or does he have to sit on them?37:51 - What about a $20+ Carlos Rodon?43:00 - How are you handling an expensive Ronald Acuna Jr.?47:02 - At what point do you cut high value (maybe high-priced) players because they aren't helping now?

Keep or Kut - Pete (@PeteBBaseball) and Chad (@chadyoung) breakdown some of their difficult upcoming keeper decisions.5:00 -Head-to-Head Heroes! Chad is excited that Spencer Torkelson is back and hitting. Pete went with a catcher, Yainer Diaz.23:19 - Pete is in an odd spot. He is going to keep an 18th round Gunnar Henderson, but what combo should he pair with Henderson? An 8th round Jose Altuve with a 9th round Jarren Duran, or should he just pay 1st and 2nd round picks to keep Fernando Tatis Jr. and Yordan Alvarez?38:25 - Is a $49 Tatis Jr. a cut?43:33 - Are we keeping a $33 Francisco Lindor? Pete says, "duh."47:16 - A 22nd round Jacob deGrom vs a 25th round Garrett Crochet. Is the choice obvious? Chad thinks so, Pete is a little hesitant.Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | TuneIn | Google Podcasts | RSSConnect: Twitter | keeporkut@gmail.com | Join PL+Get PL+ and join our Discord: https://pitcherlist.com/plus Join: PL+ | PL ProProud member of the Pitcher List Podcast Network
