Chen Chun-Hsiu, Monkeys- Chen has been a dependable source of power and fantasy production, as he has 13 doubles, one triple, nine home runs, 39 RBI and 35 runs across 62 games. The 31-year-old posted 11 Dream11 points against the Brothers in the last game Friday and has thrived against Chinatrust pitching in past encounters to the tune of 42 and 22 Dream11 points June 20 and July 7, respectively.
Lin Chih-Ping, Monkeys- Lin doesn't bring much power, but as he demonstrated Friday against this same Brothers squad, he can still compile excellent fantasy production out of the leadoff spot. Lin garnered four hits and drove in two runs in that contest, pushing his season slash line to .395/.440/.506. He has only one home run on the season, but he's complemented it with 15 doubles and also has 10 stolen bases.
Chan Tzu-Hsien, Brothers- Chan is a solid choice despite the tough matchup against Ryan Carpenter, as he sports a .354/.385/.557 line that includes 10 doubles, one triple, 13 home runs and 54 RBI over 73 games. The veteran hit a career-high 26 home runs last season, so he still should have plenty of more round trippers left in him this season, and he has tallies of 14, 32, 22, 11 and 19 Dream11 points in recent starts, offering a glimpse at his upside.
