Back to a full five game slate kicking things off on Tuesday A.M. and back to the 5:30 EST grind. No rain or weather issues expected.
PITCHING
Very very deep pitching slate.
- Eric Jokisch (Kiwoom Heroes – $9,700) … Coming off a lesser performance and facing a team not great against lefties and not very explosive of late team in the Lotte Giants. Over 20% K rate against everyone and should be in line for a nice 6 inning, 6 strikeout performance
- Chan Heong Jung (LG Twins – $6,500) … I think he gets overlooked because of Jokisch and Alcantara but I really think he’s underpriced at only $6,500. The last two starts have been extremely good and he’s your next up in line to face the bad Hanwha Eagles.
- Raul Alcantara (Doosan Bears – $7,900) … Equally as good as the other two choices and unlike Chan Heong Jung he is at home and has a lower walk/WHIP rate but lower strike-out rate as well.
HITTING STACKS
- Doosan Bears
- SK Wyverns …
- LG Twins … Probably your chalkiest team on this slate along with Doosan. I prefer SK paired with Doosan or SK paired with LG.
POSITIONAL TARGETS
Catcher
Eui Ji Yang is always a no-brainer play but is not worth an extra $1100 over Dong Won Park (KIW) or Kang Nam Yoo (LG). My pick today is Dong Won Park
First Base
It’s hard to list Doosan first and then not have a Doosan 1B play and that’s the obvious play here today. Four different lefty options against a lefty pitcher might drive some idiots away. Don’t be that person. Jae Hwan Kim has a .264 ISO against LHP this year and batting in the middle of the order is my guy
Second Base
Keon Chang Seo continues to lead off for Kiwoom and is one pivot off Jose Fernandez/Joo Hwan Choi from the Bears but I like Min Woo Park as a Dino one off.
Third Base
Jeong Choi, lock in.
Shortstop
Jae Ho Kim for Doosan has averaged 8.6 PPG over his last five and is only $2,600.
Outfield
The SK Wyverns stack has to include guys like Romak, Ko and Jeong if you are playing them. That’s my favorite GPP play on this slate.
- Doosan: Kun Woo Park / Jae Hwan Kim
- LG: Hyun Soo Kim, Eun Sung Chae
- SK: Jamie Romak / Jong Wook Ko / Eui Yoon Jeong
CHAIRMAN
Jamie Romak – 1B/OF – SK Wyverns
