  • DOO @ KIW
  • SK @ SAM

Kings of the Hill

Chris Flexen (R), DOO – $8,300 DK / $27 FD

The pitcher facing Hanwha featured in the Kings of theHill, to no one’s surprise. Not only does Chris Flexen have the best matchup onthe KBO slate, he offers a ton of upside for both cash games and GPPs. Flexenis now 3-2 on the season with a 3.46 ERA, 3.44 FIP, 1.25 WHIP, and a 22.9%strikeout rate. After seeing fellow teammate Raul Alcantara featured hereyesterday and torching the Eagles in 7 innings, allowing a single earned run on3 hits and striking out 9, there’s no reason to believe that Flexen cannot dothe same.

Chan Gyu Lim (R), LG – $8,200 DK / $28 FD

The LG pitcher gets the nod over Rucinksi here simply because of ownership at the time of writing, albeit both make a case to be a solid SP2 in our DK KBO lineups tonight. Lim does get the more favorable matchup versus Samsung while Rucinski faces KIA, and the former is now 3-2 on the season with a 3.99 ERA, 3.79 FIP, 1.27 WHIP, and a 24.3% strikeout rate. His strikeout upside is the highest on the slate while demonstrating excellent command (5.8% walk rate) through 8 starts and has had a good outing versus Samsung already, where he threw 99 pitches in 6 innings, allowing 4 runs on 7 hits and striking out 6, good for 16.7 DK points.

GPP Options: DrewRucinski (R), NCD

The Batter’s Box

Kiwoon Heroes

Call this one a gut call, I think Kiwoon explodestonight. While the matchup versus William Cuevas in tough on paper, the samecan be said for Cuevas versus Kiwoon. The main reason why I like Kiwoon tonightis because of a concern surrounding Cuevas’ health; he was scheduled to pitchyesterday but ultimately had his start pushed back a day in favor of OdrisamerDespaigne and since he is coming off a hip injury, this leads me to believe hewas feeling the aftereffects of pitching 102 times versus Hanwha just a weekago. Cuevas has a 4.75 ERA and 4.51 FIP and has been exploited by the Heroesbefore, where he allowed 5 earned runs on 8 hits in only 4 innings.

Top Options: Byung Ho Park (1B), Jung Hoo Lee (OF), HaSeong Kim (SS), Dong Won Park (C), Keon Chang Seo (1B/2B)

Others: Hye Sung Kim (2B/SS), Jeong Hyeop Heo (OF)

NC Dinos

Another team that has a tough pitching matchup on the KBO slate, I like the Dinos versus Hyun Jong Yang and the KIA Tigers tonight. While I am still a firm believer in Yang’s talent as a pitcher (he’s even rumored to have been drawing MLB interest), he has looked terrible in his last two starts versus Kiwoon and Samsung, respectively, where he’s allowed a combined 9 earned runs on 15 hits and only has 5 strikeouts. With the amount of power the Dinos have that are right-handed, combined with one of the best hitters in the entire KBO in Sung Bum Na, the KIA southpaw could be in for another long night.

Top Options: Sung Bum Na (OF), Eui Ji Yang (C), Aaron Alterr (OF), Jin Sung Kang (1B/OF), Myung Gi Lee (OF), Jin Hyuk No (2B/SS), Suk Min Park (3B)

Honorable Mention: Doosan Bears
