KBO DFS: Ghost’s Breakdown 05/26/2020

KBO Matchups

KIA @ KTW

LG @ HAN

SK @ DOO

SAM @ LOT

KIW @ NCD

Kings of the Hill

Chang Mo Koo (L), NCD ($9,600 DK / $26 FD)

If Koo wasn’t playing KIW he’d be the lock of the KBO slate. Nonetheless, the NCD southpaw is an elite target tonight. 3 games into the KBO season, there’s an argument to be made that he has been the best pitcher in the league: 22IP posting a 2-0 record, 0.41 ERA, 1.69 FIP, 0.55 WHIP, 32.9% strikeout rate, 5.3% walk rate, and 0 homeruns allowed. He has thrown at least 90 pitches in every game this season and has posted 3 straight quality starts. Koo did shut down the Doosan offense, allowing only 1 run on 2 hits and a walk. Yes, Doosan’s power hitters are lefties, which pose for a bigger challenge to get hits on Koo, but it was impressive nonetheless. KIW does have a lot of pop off the bat and are predominately righty, with sluggers Byung-Ho Park and Ha-Seong Kim being two of the best in the league, but have their work cut out for them tonight.

Chris Flexen (R), DOO ($8,700 DK / $27 FD)

Another elite target on the KBO slate comes at a premium,but it definitely worth paying up for. Flexen comes into tonight’s matchup ranking4th in the KBO in K% at 28.2% and faces a SK team that has struggled to gettheir bats going, albeit have been much better in the last few. Another pitcherwith a long leash, Flexen has posted pitch counts of 94, 108, and 108. Look fora clean outing for the Doosan ace.

Tyler Wilson (R), LG ($7,600 DK / $26 FD)

Coming off a great 2019 KBO campaign, Tyler Wilson hassettled down in his last two starts after a rough first outing for the Twins. Myreal interest for Wilson on tonight’s KBO slate comes due to his matchupagainst the Hanwha Eagles. We’ve said it time and time again that this is oneof the worst-hitting teams in the KBO and we love to pick on them. Wilson hasn’ttopped 100 pitches yet this season so do not expect that to change tonight, butfor his price on DK, you can’t go wrong.

GPP options: Dan Straily (R), LOT, Drew Gagnon (R), KIA

The Batter’s Box

DOO

I had Doosan in almost every one of my lineups onSaturday so naturally I had to watch them obliterate David Buchanan… ugh.Doosan mustered a whopping 0 runs, but had ample opportunity to light him upwith their 11 hits and still looked to be the best offense in the KBO. Tonight,they face Jong Hoon Park, a righty who has given up 8, 6, and 6 hits in his 3starts this season, including 8 to a mediocre Hanwha lineup. He’s alsostruggled with his command, giving up multiple free passes in his last twostarts. Look for Doo to explode tonight against Park and the worst bullpen inthe KBO.

Top options: anyone from this lineup is playable, from1-9

LG

My GPP stack of the day, LG is a very interesting play on tonight’s KBO slate because of the level of uncertainty surrounding Hanwha’s starter, Chad Bell. Bell is coming off the DL to make his first start of the 2020 campaign after dealing with an elbow injury on his throwing arm (the left). Yes, the lefty on lefty matchup does not bode well for Roberto Ramos or Hyun Soo Kim, but I am banking on Bell getting the hook early on after only throwing 43 pitches in two innings in his most recent rehab start. If LG sees the Hanwha bullpen for most of the game, look out.

Top Options: Roberto Ramos (1B), Hyun Soo Kim (OF),Eun Sung Chae (OF), Min Sung Kim (3B), Chun Woong Lee (OF)

Honorable Mention: NCD
