Kings of the KBO Hill

Eric Jokisch (L), KIW – $9,500 DK / $30 FD

Tonight’s KBO slate has a lot of depth in terms of talent, but many of the big pitchers are in tough matchups. Nonetheless, Jokisch continues to be the cream of the crop in the KBO, and is now sitting at 7-2 on the season with a 1.30 ERA, 3.08 FIP, 0.87 WHIP, an 18.5% strikeout rate, 3.8% walk rate, and 0.26 HR/9. He keeps the ball in the park, having only given up 2 home runs across 11 starts, shows excellent command in finding the strike zone, and typically comes in between 90-100 pitches. He’s durable, extremely talented, and is by far the top target on tonight’s KBO slate.

Raul Alcantara (R), DOO – $9,200 DK / $28 FD

While the SP2 slot continues to be a place where wefail to deploy a second pitcher in our KBO lineups with extreme confidence, wenailed another pick yesterday in Odrisamer Despaigne and will look to keep theweekly hot streak going. Alcantara does not have the best matchup on the KBOslate facing the LG Twins, but he’s shown some elite stuff this season and isnow 7-1 with a 3.46 ERA, 3.88 FIP, 1.18 WHIP, 20.9% strikeout rate and 4.1% walkrate. He’s topped 5 or more strikeouts in four straight starts and is at home,in a pitcher’s park, where he’ll look to keep the Twins offense at bay after theyput up 8 runs on 11 hits yesterday.

GPP Options: Drew Gagnon (R), KIA, Adrian Sampson (R), LOT
