Game Preview
The Wiz grabbed their first win of the season Friday, beating the defending-champion Bears 12-3 in the series opener. Rain canceled Saturday's contest. 21-year-old Kim Min will face the typically tough task of keeping the Bears' bats quiet in this one. The young righty hasn't shown much in his first two KBO campaigns, posting a 13.5 percent strikeout rate and a 9.6 percent walk rate en route to a 4.96 ERA last season. Opposing him for the Bears will be 31-year-old old Lee Yong-chan. The veteran owns a strong 3.73 ERA in 11 career seasons in the KBO, though his 4.07 ERA and 1.44 WHIP weren't particularly impressive.

Top Picks
Lee Yong-chan, Bears: Both starting pitchers are quite cheap, but there's little reason not to go with the cheaper option here. Lee has a much stronger track record than Kim Min and doesn't have to face a tough Bears lineup which finished second in runs per game last season.
Oh Jae-il Bears: Oh has produced in the heart of the Bears' order so far this season, grabbing six hits and scoring four times through four games. He's yet to homer but has hit at least 21 home runs in each of his last four seasons, so it shouldn't be long before he launches his first one this year.
Kang Baek-ho, Wiz: The 20-year-old phenom is the captain to pick if you're siding with the Wiz in this game. After hitting .336 last season, he's off to a hot start this year, grabbing five hits, including two doubles and a homer through his first four games.
Kim Jae-hwan, Bears: Kim is a strong run-producer in the middle of the imposing Bears lineup. He's averaged 115.8 RBI over the last four seasons and has four already in 2020.
Captaincy Options
1. Oh Jae-il
2. Lee Yong-chan
3. Kang Baek-ho
