Kings of the KBO Hill
Chang Mo Koo (L), NCD – $10,400 DK / $31 FD
I don’t really think anyone in the industry needs tojustify playing Chang Mo Koo on any KBO slate. The NC southpaw is not only thebest pitcher in the league, he’s the frontrunner for MVP and is blowing everylineup he faces out of the water. Koo is now 8-0 with a 1.48 ERA, 2.42 FIP,0.81 WHIP, and a league-leading 30.4% strikeout rate. He’s topped 20 or more DKpoints in 10 of 11 starts and should keep the LG offense off the board for themajority of his time on the mound. Lock the best play on the KBO slate everytime you see his name.
Seung Won Moon (R), SK – $8,400 DK / $27 FD
After a clear #1 pitcher is taken off the board, we turn to Seung Won Moon of the SK Wyverns for the SP2 slot over on DK. Moon is not only playable because he gets a favorable matchup versus Hanwha, rather he has the strikeout upside we look for in tournament play. On the season, Moon is now 2-5 with a 3.19 ERA, 3.36 FIP, 1.14 WHIP, and a 23.2% strikeout rate while showing solid command on the mound with a 6% walk rate. While it’s tough to justify spending nearly 19k in salary on DK for pitching alone, these two options are clear cut favorites for me to be the leaders in raw points on the slate, along with another pitcher mentioned below, so look for some value bats to round out your lineups tonight.
