Korean Baseball Best Bets 8/30/22 - KBO Picks & Predictions

The KBO is set to start off the week on Tuesday. The downside is the games do have a good chance of being rained out as the weather may not cooperate on Tuesday.

KT Wiz vs Doosan Bears, KT -180 ; O/U 7.5

The Wiz have a 63-49-2 record. The Bears have a 47-62-2 record. The Wiz are hitting at a clip of .256 with 94 homers and a team ERA of 3.50. Pitching for the Wiz is Ko Young-pyo and he is 12-5 with a 2.85 ERA. The Bears are putting Brandon Waddell on the mound and he is 2-1 with a 2.86 ERA.  The Bears  are hitting at a clip of .249 on the year and have 70 homers and have a team ERA of 4.20. The Wiz are coming in with a great pitcher on the mound in this game and with Young-pyo he should easily shut down the Bears hitting. The Bears will struggle to score and that is what will lead to the Wiz getting the win.

KBO Free Pick: KT Wiz -180

Lotte Giants vs Kiwoom Heroes, LOT -160 ; O/U 8

The Giants are sitting 52--60-4 record. The Heroes have a 64-51-2 record. The Giants  are hitting at a clip of .260 with 85 homers and a team ERA of 4.40. The pitching for the Giants  is Charlie Barnes and he is 11-9 with a 2.98 ERA. The Heroes are putting Yoon Jung-hyun on the mound and he is 1-0 with a 14.21 ERA. The Heroes are hitting at a clip of .250 on the year and have 78 homers and have a team ERA of 3.81. The game here should be one that is very evenly matched with the teams both having almost equal in all regards, but the starting pitcher for the Heroes is going to have a lot of issues here as Yoon has not proven to be really that good on the mound on the year so far. 

KBO Free Pick: Lotte Giants -180
