Kings of the KBO Hill
Jong Hoon Park (R), SK – $8,300 DK / $26 FD
While most will jockey back and forth deciding whichof Mike Wright and Aaron Brooks to start their KBO DFS lineups with, I’ll gladlytake Jong Hoon Park at a $1200 and $700 discount, respectively, on DK, and at a$3 or $1 discount on FD. Although Park isn’t the biggest name on the KBO slate,his 24.7% strikeout rate is the highest of all pitchers on the slate andcombined with his matchup versus Hanwha, he has the highest upside. Tie thatinto the fact that some may be scared because of high walk rate (9.3%) andinflated ERA (5.43), Park is exactly the high risk, high reward play I want inmy lineups tonight.
Aaron Brooks (R), KIA – $9,000 DK / $29 FD
While he won’t be my first player that I put in my KBO DFS lineups tonight, he makes a compelling case to be the second over on DK. At first glance, the matchup versus Kiwoon had me thinking I’d be passing on Brooks, but after digging into his statistics this season, he seems like the best combination of safe floor and high upside on a KBO slate that doesn’t have many elite pitchers to offer. Brooks is now 3-3 on the season with a 2.36 ERA, 2.87 FIP, 1.08 WHIP, 22.8% strikeout rate, a 5.1% walk rate, and he has surpassed 10 or more DK points in EVERY start this season, including 6 of 11 starts being against the best offenses in the league in Kiwoon, Doosan, and NC. In 2 previous starts versus KIW this season, Brooks is 0-1 with a 1.32 ERA, only allowing a single earned run in nearly 12 innings with 14 strikeouts.
