KBO DFS Pitching Primer: Friday, June 5th

The Pitching Primer is back! Well, at least temporarily, that is.

In this article, I will be looking at the 10 pitching options for the upcoming KBO (Korea Baseball Organization) slate. I want to be clear that in no way do I want to present myself as any sort of expert on this matter. The majority of what you will see here are the stats that I was able to find on each pitcher, and I will close it out with a brief summary of a few of my favorite options. I am extremely early in the research process of this league, so it is likely that your own research lands on something different than me.

The pitchers will be listed in order of their pricing on DraftKings, starting with the most expensive. FanDuel, for whatever reason, only allows you to roster the “team” as the starting pitcher, but they also make it clear that you only get fantasy points for whoever starts.

So with all of that in mind, let’s talk some pitching!

PITCHING OPTIONS

Meansy will be back tomorrow, but for one more day, you are stuck with me. This is a strange and difficult slate. We’re almost certainly going to see Mike Wright chalk day, and while he is the best option, this does not feel like great chalk. Let’s dig in and see what we find.

(The pitchers below are listed as the probable starters on MyKBO. I will update the article if I find something to the contrary after posting.)
