Kings of the Hill
Mike Wright (R), NC Dinos – $8,900 DK / $27 FD
4 starts into his 2020 KBO season, Mike Wright has been tough to figure out. On tonight’s KBO slate, we are not gifted with excellent pitching options, but Wright has to be at the top of the list despite the unpredictability of his statistics. Looking into them, Wright looks to be elite on the surface with a 3-0 record and over 15 DK points in every start. However, his 2.86 ERA is shadowed by a 5.18 FIP, 11% walk rate, and 1.22 HR/9. His accompanying statistics don’t shout “I’m an Ace in the KBO” but I’ll definitely chase the upside and raw points tonight; Wright is posting a 21.7% strikeout rate in 4 starts and faces a mediocre Samsung lineup.
William Cuevas (R), KT Wiz – $7,700 DK / $25 FD
Cuevas draws a tough matchup on tonight’s KBO slate and I’m hoping that keeps his ownership lower. While Cuevas hasn’t exactly been stellar this season, posting a 1-1- record, 5.55 ERA and 4.41 FIP, he has the confidence from the Wiz’s manager to go until he can’t feel his arm anymore; he’s pitched 105, 102, and 105 times in his last 3 games despite being tagged for 1, 4, and 4 runs in each start, respectively. Moreover, he’s a hair under the 20% strikeout mark (19.7%) and KIW leads the KBO in strikeouts as a team. With everyone flocking to Won Tae Choi (R), KIW, I’ll gladly take Cuevas and his upside in DK GPPs at lower ownership than his counterpart.
DK GPP options: Ricardo Pinto (R), SK and Shi Hwan Jang (R), HAN
FD GPP option: Chan Gyu Lim (R), LG
The Batter’s Box
NC Dinos (NCD)
For the second day in a row, the NC Dinos are the top KBO stack on both sites. They’re still in a hitter’s park in their second game of the series versus Samsung and face David Buchanan on the mound. I really shouldn’t have to justify why we like to pick on Buchanan, but let’s take a look. 2-2 record (yes, that’s fine…) with a 5.40 ERA, 1.4 HR/9, and 19 hits allowed in his last two starts. Need I say more?
Top options: Sun Bum Na (OF), Eui-Ji Yang (C), Min WooPark (2B), Suk Min Park (3B)
Salary savers: Jin Sung Kang (C), Jin Hyuk No (2B/SS)
Doosan Bears (DOO)
They’ve been “slumping” the past few KBO slates and have proven to be worthy of fade consideration in tournaments given their ownership on what seems to be every KBO slate, but tonight is the night the Doosan offense explodes. They’ll see Jun Won Seo on the mound for the Lotte Giants and his numbers aren’t too pretty: 1.66 HR/9, 4.98 ERA, 6.03 FIP. While switching their ‘9’ and leadoff hitters, Soo Bin Jung and Kun Woo Park, hasn’t been too effective just yet, tonight is an interesting KBO slate to attempt a DOO wrap-around stack with hitters 9-1-2-3-4.
Top Options: Jose Fernandez (1B/2B), Jae Hwan Kim(OF/1B), Joo Hwan Choi (1B/2B), Jae Ho Kim (SS)
** Keep an eye out if Jae Il Oh starts. He was on the DL but has since pinch hit in two straight games. I think they’ll save him for next week since they have Sundays off but you never know. If he’s in, lock in ALL DK lineups at $3,800**
