Well then your decision is made for you. Of course when it comes to Keeper leagues what are the 6 keepers currently? This is who I have to choose from: Soto Vlad Jr. Scherzer Sale deGrom Syndergaard Kershaw Severino I'll be keeping 6 of them...Last season, I kept all 6 pitchers, which paid off because Kershaw was practically a non factor. Grabbed Soto in the draft, and Vlad off the WW and stashed him for the season. I have won this league for so many years in a row that I'm not sure how many, but it is all because of my pitching. I am usually able to put together a decent offense in the draft, and am a waiver wire hound throughout the season. As you can see, my pithing is my strength, in a major way. Severino and Kershaw really scare me. I was all set to let Kershaw go, then the news came out about Severino, and it does appear to be right rotator cuff inflammation. I have to have my keepers chosen by midnight tonight, so it is imperative that I make the right decision. I doubt that Kershaw, Severino, Soto or Vlad will make it to my first round pick at #12 in the draft. Odds are all 4 would be gone, but then again, maybe not. There may be other owners scared by Kershaw and Severino injuries as well. With 6 keepers, what is out there to draft in pretty meager, which is why it drives me nuts to throw 2 of that list back into the draft... Soto would not make it to me for certain. I think that is a given. So I think he is set as a keeper. Right now, my gut tells me to go with this: Scherzer Sale deGrom Syndergaard Severino Soto This is the latest on Severino: Severino has been encouraged by how he feels in the days following a cortisone shot in his throwing shoulder and no longer feels pain when lifting his arm, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports. Analysis: Severino received a cortisone shot in his right shoulder Wednesday after MRI results showed right rotator cuff inflammation. He'll rest for the next two weeks and will then commence a throwing program to get him ready for the regular season. Although Severino remains unlikely to be ready for the season opener, this is positive news in the early going for one of the Yankees' top arms.
