KT Wiz Suwon vs. Hanwha Eagles – 8/21/20 KBO Baseball Pick, Odds, and Prediction

The Hanwha Eagles and KT Wiz Suwon meet Friday morning in South Korea KBO baseball action at the Hanwha Life Eagles Park.  

The Hanwha Eagles need a win after losing 17 of their last 24 games. The Hanwha Eagles pitching staff has allowed five or more runs in 21 of their last 32 games. In their last effort, Jung Jin-ho and Choi Jae-hoon combined for two hits while Jang Shi-hwan allowed one run and five hits in seven innings of work. The Hanwha Eagles have lost 45 of their last 61 games overall. Chad Bell gets the ball tonight for the Hanwha Eagles.   

The KT Wiz Suwon look for a win after winning 13 of their last 18 games. The KT Wiz Suwon offense has produced four or more runs in 14 of their last 20 games. In their last effort, Bae Jeong-dae and Park Seung-wook combined for three hits and three RBI while Bae Je-seong allowed zero runs and zero hits in 5.2 innings of work. The KT Wiz Suwon have won 19 of their last 28 games overall. Kim Min-soo gets the ball tonight for the KT Wiz Suwon.     

The KT Wiz Suwon have won nine of the last 12 meetings against the Hanwha Eagles. Six of the last 12 meetings between the Wiz Suwon and Eagles have produced double-digit run totals.

Chad Bell has a 7.01 ERA and 1.77 WHIP this season through 51.1 innings, and he’s allowed four or more earned runs in six of his last nine starts. Kim Min-soo has a 5.88 ERA and 1.81 WHIP this season through 59.2 innings, and he’s allowed three or more earned runs in four of his last five starts. Kim Min-soo probably isn’t a starting pitcher you want to lay heavy juice with, but he’s certainly a better option than Chad Bell. The KT Wiz Suwon have also won nine of the last 12 meetings against the Hanwha Eagles, and they’re fresh off a game yesterday where they shut them out and allowed just two hits.

Only one way to go here. Give me the KT Wiz Suwon and the RL for added value.
