Hanwha Eagles coach Kim Kyung-moon expressed his position on the reorganization of the coaching staff.
Hanwha will play the last three consecutive games in the first half against KT Wiz at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon from the 2nd.
A day before the game on the 2nd, Hanwha's coaching staff and related reports came out. SPOTV commentator Yang Sang-moon will join the new first-team pitching coach, and pitcher coach Park Seung-min will go down to the second team.
In fact, it is true that the recruitment of Yang is underway. It's not over yet to write the final contract. And not only the pitching coach but also the head coach will be replaced.
Coach Kim met ahead of the game on the 2nd and tried to replace the senior coach and the pitching coach. "However, after the first half, I tried to finish the work through the All-Star break, but the report came out and the contents became known." In fact, it may not affect the team's atmosphere only when the three consecutive games against KT are well completed and the facts are known, but there is a possibility that the atmosphere inside the team will be disturbed due to reports.
Coach Kim said, `I told head coach Chung Kyung-bae in advance during the away match in Busan last week. I also expressed my apologies to coach Park Seung-min for my decision", he explained. Coach Kim said, `When I first took over as a coach, I decided that there was no need to shake the coaching staff. Both coaches played really well. However, from the manager's point of view, there are times when he has to make a decision for the team. The two coaches explained the reason for the replacement, saying, "The remaining three consecutive games will also lead the players well.'
Manager Kim also admitted that Yang is scheduled to come as a pitching coach. He is the best expert in the field of pitchers who have been through all their careers. He also has various experiences as a coach for the Lotte Giants and LG Twins and as a national team coach. He also served as a general manager at LG. When he was not wearing a uniform, he always worked with the scene as a commentator. Manager Kim said, `There are a lot of young pitchers on our team, which will help.'
However, coach Kim reacted cautiously to who the head coach candidate was. The names of veteran leaders with ties to head coach Kim are being discussed. In addition, the exact positions of coach Chung and coach Park will be decided later.
