| Hitters |
| Pos | Player | Team | Opp. Pitcher | DK Sal. |
| C | Sung Woo Jang | KTW | M. Jang (R) | $3,400 |
| Jang has been a decent hitting catcher throughout his career, but never this good and this consistent before. He’s been producing runs at a great clip notching 13 in his first 11 games. Jang is definitely a member of a KT stack if that’s a route you decide to go. |
| C | Dong Won Park | KIW | J. Park (R) | $4,000 |
| Park has homered in two straight games, has a hit in four straight and his OPS has spiked to .955 on the year. Park and Ji Young Lee were supposed to be in a timeshare, but it’s clear Park is the superior hitter and far more valuable in DFS as well. |
| 1B/OF | Baek Ho Kang | KTW | M. Jang (R) | $5,800 |
| Kang extended his hitting streak to 12 games to start the year on Tuesday going 3-for-4 with a homer and three RBI. He’s now homered in two straight games and has 10 RBI over his last four games alone. He has a plus match-up getting the right-handed Hanwha starter. Would it surprise anyone to see that 1.265 OPS on the rise after Wednesday’s game? Didn’t think so. |
| 1B | Roberto Ramos | LG | C. Choi (L) | $3,100 |
| What are we missing? Ramos keeps hitting. Keeps posting big numbers. Keeps hitting home runs. Is still cheap as hell. Ramos has already belted five bombs, four doubles and driven in 10 runs as well. There aren’t any holes in Ramos’ game at the dish right now and the fact he’s still 3.1K is outlandish. |
| 1B | Dae Ho Lee | LOT | D. Gagnon (R) | $4,200 |
| It’s not the easiest spot, but Gagnon has also given up six extra-base hits in two starts. Lee is hitting .356 with a robust .945 OPS this year. Lee has done most of his damage against RHP this year batting .378 against them. |
| 1B/OF | Jamie Romak | SK | S. Lee (L) | $6,000 |
| I refuse to believe Romak is this bad of a hitter, especially the lack of power he has shown thus far in 2020. Romak has hit 29+ homers in each of his first three KBO campaigns so I believe in the three-year sample more than 12 games. He gets to face off against a lefty here as well, so advantage in the split. I’m willing to pay the expensive price tag in GPP’s. |
| 1B/2B | Keon Chang Seo | KIW | J. Park (R) | $3,000 |
| The Kiwoom leadoff man continues to play at an elite offensive level and hasn’t even flashed his full potential in terms of speed. He has stolen two bags, but he has shown 40 SB upside in the past. Seo has a .339 OBP as well but is someone that has a career .392 OBP, so things should actually get BETTER from here. |
| 2B | Chi Hong Ah | LOT | D. Gagnon | $2,500 |
| We're playing Ah for the speed and for the price. Both are extremely juicy delicious despite a tough match-up against an import. If Ah reaches bases, he's taking off. |
| 3B | Jae Gyun Hwang | KTW | M. Jang (R) | $4,700 |
| Hwang has begun to heat up hitting in four straight games while notching double-figure DraftKings points in each. We haven’t seen the power yet considering he’s hit 20+ homers in four-straight campaigns but is starting to show flashes as he has five extra-base hits in four games. KT is a really strong stack on this slate. |
| Pos | Player | Team | Opp. Pitcher | DK Sal. |
| 3B/SS | Jeong Choi | SK | S. Lee (L) | $5,300 |
| Choi’s bat has not been what it’s been in the past, but that can change in a flash considering what we’ve seen from him. Seung Ho Lee, Kiwoom’s starter, has had an issue serving up the long ball (19 in 177 career innings). If there’s ever a time to break out, it’s this game and match-up. |
| SS | Woo Jun Sim | KTW | M. Jang (R) | $2,800 |
| Sim is the KT leadoff hitter and has been quite good this season reaching base at a .373 clip. He’s also swiped three bags and has attempted five steals already. He has swiped double-figure bags for four straight seasons including a career-best 24 last season, so he’s looking to run all the time. |
| OF | Chun Woong Lee | LG | C. Choi (L) | $3,400 |
| Lee has been excellent this year hitting .348 and reaching base at a .404 clip. He’s leading off each and every game and has swiped four bags thus far as well. Lee is just a professional hitter, notching a .308 career average long with a .383 OBP. The downside is the lefty-lefty match-up we have. |
| OF | Jun Woo Jeon | LOT | D. Gagnon (R) | $4,100 |
| The Giants' three-hole hitter has gotten off to a big start this season notching a .980 OPS and has hit four bombs as well. He has 77 bombs since the start of the 2017 campaign and has hit .300+ in each season as well. He has the split advantage here as well. |
| OF | Jung Ho Lee | KIW | J. Park (R) | $4,200 |
| Lee continues to rake day in, day out. He has back-to-back three-hit games, two doubles in each, and two runs batted in as well. His slash sits at .421/.476/.842 and has a whopping 10 extra-base hits. He has the split advantage here going up against a right-hander and this game is expected to go over the 9.5 runs implied, which bodes well for Lee. |
| OF | Preston Tucker | KIA | D. Straily (R) | $6,100 |
| It really doesn’t matter who’s on the mound right now, Tucker’s exposing everyone. Tucker is tied for the league lead with homers (5) and has a bunch of doubles (6) to boot. He has five multi-hit games over his last seven contests and we know Dan Straily can give up a bomb or two with the best of em. |
| OF | Sung Bum Na | NCD | C. Flexen (R) | $4,700 |
| This is the Greg Jewett special, ladies and gents. Na is coming around, but his numbers could be so much better if he simply had some batted ball luck on his side. He has 30 HR upside and Flexen can serve em up as we saw during his short stint with the Mets big league club. |
