Kings of the KBO Hill
Dan Straily (R), LOT – $9,400 DK / $24 FD
The ace of tonight’s KBO slate is facing a Samsung roster that has been putting up a ton of runs as of late, but they haven’t faced a pitcher with the strikeout ability that Straily has. The Giants’ best pitcher is now 3-2 on the season with a 2.07 ERA, 3.02 FIP, 0.97 WHIP, and 25.7% strikeout rate that puts him behind only the MVP frontrunner in Chang Mo Koo for tops in the KBO. With the level of uncertainty in the 8k price range on DK, it solidifies Straily’s position as the best pitcher on the slate and the premier pay up option.
Casey Kelly (R), LG – $8,200 DK / $23 FD
The last time I discussed as to why we WEREN’T playingCasey Kelly in his last start, I explained that it would take a significantprice drop from the high $9,000 range on DK to the 8k range, and the only timeI would consider him at 9k + is if he was playing Hanwha. Well, on tonight’sKBO slate, we have the best of both worlds. Kelly is now 4-4 on the season witha 4.63 ERA, 4.33 FIP, 1.40 WHIP, and a 17.8% strikeout rate. His numbers certainlydon’t jump off the page, but his matchup versus Hanwha does; the fact that weget him at a discount is just a bonus.
