Top Picks/Captaincy Options

Lin Li, Monkeys- Lin is simply an elite hitter, as he leads the CPBL in batting average (.383), OPS (1.146) and wOBA (.479), shares the lead in home runs (20) and is third in hits (100). He brings a hefty price of 17.5 credits but you'll be hard-pressed to find a more reliable option   

Chen Chieh-Hsien, Lions- Chen comes into Sunday's game with a stellar .367/.425/.473 slash and minuscule 5.9 percent strikeout rate. He also offers some stolen-base ability (eight steals on the season) and comes in swinging a hot bat (15 and 16 fantasy points in his last two games, respectively).

Lin Hung-Yu, Monkeys- Lin owns an impressive .340/.361/.536 line that includes 23 extra-base hits and 46 RBI. That's led to a stout .386 wOBA, and his frequent role as a designated hitter in the heart of the lineup often sets him up for success. 

Chen Chun-Hsiu, Monkeys- Chen is slashing an impressive .324/.379/.507 and has a solid 16.8 percent strikeout rate. The veteran's numbers are legitimate, as he's been an excellent hitter throughout his career (.324 average or better in five of seven professional seasons).
