KBO DFS Lineup Picks For 6/21/20 - DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball

Welcome back RotoBallers! How did you do on last night's slate? I fared better on FanDuel than I did on DraftKings. I made a last minute change or two on DraftKings swapping out Ha Seong Kim for Dixon Machado and that was the difference between cashing and not. Kim just felt too expensive to me […]

I'm back after a short weekend hiatus. Life has been getting very busy recently now that lifestyle restrictions are being lifted across the US. There were some interesting things that happened in the KBO over the weekend, like Hanwha not only breaking their 18-game losing streak, but sweeping both ends of a doubleheader against Doosan. […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks will be our next stop on the farm to evaluate the best prospects on each MLB team.

KBO Betting Picks (6/10/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Well if going winless isn't a terrible way to start the week off, I'm not sure what is. I went with the public on Hanwha and Lotte and it totally flopped. I expected KT's offense to comeback to form but they really look to be struggling right now. Meanwhile LG seems to be a one-trick […]

KBO Betting Picks (6/3/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Tuesday was a positive day record wise, but man I can't help but be a bit sick about the NC Dinos. It seems like every time they are in the "right spot" and I grab the runline, they blow up. That happened again on Tuesday. And maybe it was just poor analysis on my part, […]

KBO Betting Picks (6/2/2020) - Moneyline, Totals, and Runlines

We had a beautiful way to end last week with a sweep and now we keep chugging along on the KBO train. One thing I will say from last week, is that if there is a team that can get their pitching under control and make a nice run through the season, it is the […]

ERA Lie Detector: Finding 2019 Overachievers With SIERA (Part 2)

Welcome back RotoBallers to my Lie Detector mini-series (you can read part one here). Skills-Interactive ERA (or SIERA) has been around since 2011 when it was introduced at Baseball Prospectus by Matt Swartz and Eric Seidman before moving to its current home at Fangraphs. Much like xFIP, SIERA attempts to quantify the skills that underpin […]

KBO Betting Picks (5/30/20) - Moneylines, Runlines, and Totals

Nothing like some Friday morning gambling sweat. Every single piece of action came down to the wire, with Doosan winning by two and Samsung graciously walking off on NC and not letting the game go to extra plus cashing the under. However, the Kiwoom Heroes really let me down, not being able to push across […]

KBO Betting Picks (5/29/20) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

There was never a doubt for Thursday's slate. Casey Kelly was getting overlooked by Warwick Saupold but the numbers just didn't add up. Kelly was the guy to target and he showed that by spinning a gem against Hanwha. Then Kia and KT had an early offensive bout that saw the over cash in the […]

ADP Champ or Chump Spotlight: Bo Bichette

It's easy to joke that the 2020 Toronto Blue Jays will have the last names of a 1990's All-Star team, but the kids have a realistic shot at surpassing their fathers. This author isn't as high on Vladimir Guerrero Jr. as most, but Cavan Biggio looks like an advanced hitter with the potential to blend […]

Eliminating Park Factors: Which Hitters Will Benefit Most

As Major League Baseball seeks a way to open the season in early July, one proposal has teams starting or playing the entire season in warm-weather locations (Arizona and Florida) or hub cities. That leaves fantasy managers to re-evaluate hitters whose parks impact their performance and value. For hitters, it’s primarily a matter of considering […]

We enter a new week of KBO action and things around the league are starting to take shape. NC is still in first place, while LG and Doosan are holding themselves to a high standard as well.
