McCutchen

Scherzer

Kimbrel

Jansen

Carpernter

Segura

Can you trade Kershaw for someone from a later round?

I like these keepers as I think it sets you up well on both sides of the stats.

Unfortunately we don't have pre-draft trading.

harper, segura, carpenter are obvious. would also keep mccutchen as hes a top 5 player. for the last 2 id go with jansen and springer. dont love kimbrels value as a 7th rounder and springer has crazy upside.

I can see holding on to Springer in a deeper keeper, but it makes more sense to get immediate production with only six players being kept. I'd swap out Harper with Scherzer in mmm's list.

Thanks for the advice. Any thoughts on Yelich's long term potential?

Kimbrel and Jansen are great, but is holding on to either or both too high a price to pay for saves and ratio?

Discount rate for two of the truly elite closers? Yes, please.
