Hitters |
Pos | Player | Team | Opp. Pitcher | DK Sal. | DK FPPG |
C | Kang Nam Yoo | LG | C. Bell (L) | $4,000 | 7.17 |
Could this be the game where Bell pitches well? Nothing suggests it will. He’s allowed RHP to bat .333 this year while giving up 3-of-4 homers to them. Yoo has slashed .387/.444/.419 over his last 10 games to pull his seasonal average over .300. He already has 28 RBI on the year and happens to be batting a robust .526 vs. LHP this year. |
C | Sung Woo Jang | KTW | T. Kim (L) | $3,500 | 6.09 |
Jang has struggled lately, but he’s still been productive as a run producer driving in 25 runs in 34 games. He has some pop as well and we get the split advantage to boot. He’s not a top-tier play, but works in a stack well. |
1B | Dae Ho Lee | LOT | W. Choi (R) | $3,900 | 8.78 |
After a pedestrian start to the campaign, Lee has had a power surge belting four bombs over his last 10 games helping raise his SLG over .500. Lee has homered four times over his last 10 games and in back-to-back contests, giving him six on the season. He’s a really nice price tag sitting below 4K for this slate of games. |
1B/2B | Jose Fernandez | DOO | D. Kim (R) | $6,200 | 11.06 |
Fernandez has slowed down a bit offensively and yet he’s still hitting .393 with an OPS north of 1.000. He has the split advantage here and has LOVED facing off against SAM pitching slashing .529/.550/.941 in four games. |
2B/SS | Hye Sung Kim | KIW | J. Seo (R) | $2,500 | 7.4 |
I love the price and production we’re getting from Kim here. He’s homered three times over his last five contests, has driven in 10 runs while scoring eight more over that span. He’s multi-position eligible and is free. If not using Seo, he’s a solid bet for all formats. |
SS | Ha Seong Kim | KIW | J. Seo (R) | $6,000 | 9.73 |
One of the best hitters in the KBO, Kim hasn’t had the best season but can provide us with power and speed in the same contest. The problem with Jung Won Seo is that he gives up a ton of power (6 HR in 38.2 IP) and four of them have come against RHP. 4-of-5 bombs for Kim have come against RHP. |
Pos | Player | Team | Opp. Pitcher | DK Sal. | DK FPPG |
SS | Jae Ho Kim | DOO | D. Kim (R) | $2,800 | 7.41 |
More free money, I suppose. We’re not getting massive upside -- which I’ve touched on a million times -- but the floor is so solid for the price. He’s slashing .419/.474/.548 over his last 10 games and has a mini four-game hitting streak. He’s batting .373 vs. RHP on the season. |
3B/SS | Jeong Choi | SK | B. Jo (R) | $4,600 | 7.91 |
Choi has turned it on of late and continues to watch his numbers rise to where we’re accustomed to seeing. Choi has belted 29+ homers for four straight seasons and although he only has four, we just saw what he can do two games ago belting two bombs in one game. He’s valuable considering how weak both SS/3B are. |
3B | Jae Gyun Hwang | KTW | T. Kim (L) | $5,200 | 8.42 |
Hwang returned on Tuesday and played the full game and should be in the lineup once again on a regular basis considering it was just a finger issue. Hwang wasn’t flashing much power before going down with an injury, but he’s hit 20+ HR in four straight seasons and also has two 40+ double seasons within those four campaigns. |
OF | Mel Rojas Jr. | KTW | T, Kim (L) | $5,400 | 11.75 |
Don’t be discouraged by Rojas’ .275 average over his last 10 games because he gets the draw against a southpaw. Why that matters is because he’s COOKING LHP batting .472 with five home runs and 15 RBI. I love that we’re paying less than 6K for a guy who’s second in the league in homers. |
OF | Han Joon Yoo | KTW | T. Kim (L) | $3,600 | 8.46 |
Another KT OF here. That said, he’s raking lately slashing .355/.429/.710 over his last 10. He’s been flashing a ton of power over that span, belting three bombs over his last seven games alone. Yoo has been good against LHP this year posting a casual .400 batting average. |
OF | Eun Sung Chae | LG | C. Bell (L) | $3,300 | 8.8 |
I mean, we’re getting the Twins three-hitter at only 3.3K in a dream scenario. He has the split advantage and is batting .316 with an .852 OPS this season. He has back-to-back multi-hit games and even hit his fifth homer of the year on Tuesday. Chae is an elite cash play on this slate. |
OF | Ah Seop Son | LOT | W. Choi (R) | $3,600 | 8.78 |
Son doesn’t have massive amounts of power, but enough that he could take Choi deep. It’s relevant to bring this up because Choi has allowed four bombs to LHH while allowing an average over .300 to them as well. Son is batting a cool .331 on the year and has been productive as a run producer (20 RBI) and a run scorer (30 R). |
OF | Sung Bum Na | NCD | M. Lee (R) | $6,100 | 11.14 |
Na is having a crazy season. He’s hitting for a boatload of power (21 XBH), driving in a ton of runs (32), scoring a lot more (31 R) and striking out SO much (51). He has a massive split advantage here and it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest to see him launch his 12 bomb against a SP that’s allowed 13 runs over his last two outings. |
