Can I Cut this Star?

Pete & Chad breakdown some tough keeper calls.

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? Chad wrestling with a struggling $26 Marcus Semien, $28 Gerrit Cole, and $11 George Kirby.

1:03:45 – Reviewing three deadline deals involving Spencer Torkelson, Spencer Arrighetti, Logan Webb, Kyle Manzardo, Framber Valdez, Shane Baz, Luis Ortiz, Parker Meadows.
