"Yu Kang-nam, it is difficult to return to the first team for the time being" Lotte's home turf continues to worry, but 'Banz → Son Ho-young' Chun is waiting

The Lotte Giants will play their first game in the second half against the SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 9th.
Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung, who met before the game, spent a considerable amount of time reporting on the injured.
First of all, Ko Seung-min, who was out due to a finger injury, registered in the first team on the day and started as the seventh batter on the day. "I think it's okay" is the answer.
Main catcher Yoo Kang-nam's injury is getting longer. Son Sung-bin, Information Geun, and Seo Dong-wook are alternately filling the vacancy.
Even if Yoo Kang-nam is also sluggish, it is still difficult to keep up with his ability to mix balls in crisis situations, leadership to lead pitchers, and mental management. Lotte, who is still anxious about starting and bullpen, is even more desperate.
Yoo Kang-nam, however, is unlikely to return to the first team for the time being. Yoo Kang-nam's injury is a damage to the medial meniscus of the left knee. Manager Kim Tae-hyung said, `It's a repetition of things that get worse again if you raise it a little because it's okay. I think we need more time to watch the progress"It was regrettable.
Instead, other injured people are preparing to return one after another.

Son Ho-young, who ranked second in the history of a single season (31 games by Park Jung-tae in 1999) with 30 consecutive hits, is also set to return. "More than 80% of my physical condition has been recovered. I'm going to play in the Futures game around the 17th."

Rookie Jeon Mir is also preparing to return. Manager Kim Tae-hyung said, `I'm starting, but I'm not sure yet. I'm a little cautious" but added "I think it'll come in soon"
