Kings of the KBO Hill
Drew Gagnon (R), KIA – $8,900 DK / $26 FD
The top tier of pitchers on tomorrow’s KBO slate hasthree viable options in Gagnon, Alcantara, and Jokisch, but it’s Gagnon whogets the nod for me here. The KIA arm found his groove on the mound in his laststart versus Samsung and despite needing 106 pitches without getting throughsix innings, Gagnon showed his strikeout upside by whiffing 9 en route to 22.6DK points. Overall on the season, Gagnon now sits at 5-3 with a 3.88 ERA, 3.08FIP, 1.29 WHIP, and an impressive 24.1% strikeout rate. While Jokisch andAlcantara make for fine options, I’ll gladly take the discount on Gagnon versusHanwha.
Raul Alcantara (R), DOO – $10,000 DK / $25 FD
While Eric Jokisch is an elite target over on FD atthe minimum $20 price tag, Alcantara gets the nod for me here on DK for only$200 more. The Kiwoon southpaw does face a Doosan lineup that is heavily left-handed,which entails a favorable split, but Alcantara has been equally as dominant thisKBO season; he’s now 9-1 with a 3.13 ERA, 3.48 FIP, 1.12 WHIP, and 22.1%strikeout rate. Is the Kiwoon offense just as scary as Doosan’s? I would argueyes, on certain days, but Alcantara does offer more strikeout upside than hiscounterpart, whiffing 5 or more batters in six consecutive starts, and willhave ample opportunity to rack up more strikeouts versus the likes of Byung HoPark and Dong Won Park, in addition to playing in his home park which isnotorious for limiting the deep ball.
