Top Picks/Captaincy Options
Hsu Chi-Hung, Brothers- As mentioned earlier, Hsu homered off Dykxhoorn the last time these two teams met and also comes in slashing an outstanding .316/.389/.575 with 26 extra-base hits (14 doubles, 12 home runs) and 42 RBI. He's been excellent over the last several games in particular, accumulating Dream11 fantasy point totals of 10, 19 and 29 in the last three contests.
Chan Tzu-Hsien, Brothers- Chan also belted a home run off Dykxhoorn in last week's game and owns an impressive .357/.431/.551 line with 24 extra-base hits (10 doubles, one triple, 13 home runs) and 54 RBI. All three components of the five-year veteran's season slash are career highs, and he's scored 14 and 32 Dream 11 points the last two games, the latter total coming against this same Lions team.
Chang Chih-Hao, Brothers- Chang has 30 extra-base hits (11 doubles, 19 home runs) and a prolific 66 RBI for the season over 68 games, all part of a .321/.384/.601 line. The veteran slugger offers tremendous fantasy upside with his power and makes for an excellent captains choice as a result.
Wang Wei-Chen, Brothers- Wang is always a viable choice out of his usual leadoff spot. The five-year veteran is a constant presence on the basepaths, slashing .363/.391/.482 for the season with 22 doubles, one triple, four home runs, 27 RBI, 61 runs and even 11 stolen bases, all while striking out just 37 times over 327 plate appearances.
