BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues
ROSTERED IN: 5% of leagues
ANALYSIS:
We don't know much about Woo, as he came up to the Majors straight from the AA level to pitch on Saturday. That start aside, we know that Woo has some definite upside in the long-term as he's managed a 34.3% K% and a 7.0% BB% in 9 minor league starts this year. That 27.3% K-BB% ranks seventh-best in the upper levels of the minor leagues.
Going from any level of the minor leagues to the Major Leagues is quite a jump, and we should expect nothing close to a 27% K-BB% again as he'll suddenly be facing the best hitters of his lifetime, but the groundwork is good to have here. We have seen some plenty of rookie arms have success in the Majors already this year, and there's no reason that can't happen for Woo. Don't expect the world, but he should be added in deep leagues.
