LG Twins aiming to recapture the championship in 2025. In fact, in terms of overall history, it is not very good compared to last year's winning team, the KIA Tigers, or the runner-up Samsung Lions.
FA Jang Hyun-sik was brought in, but starter Choi Won-tae was sent to Samsung. The problem is the bullpen again this year. Jang Hyun-sik came, but Ham Deok-ju will be able to return to the team in the second half of this season after undergoing surgery after the end of last year's season, and closer Yoo Young-chan found a microfracture of his elbow during a medical check after the Premier 12, forcing him to leave for a long time. Jang Hyun-sik's addition was not a positive factor, but it became a use to barely fill the minus.
LG, which recruited veteran Shim Chang-min, quickly tried to reinforce the bullpen by recruiting additional FA Kim Kang-ryul. Choi recruited left-handed Choi Chae-heung as a reward player for Choi Won-tae, and the mound has plenty of resources in terms of quantity. Still, in the season, there must be three ￣ and four pitchers who can stably prevent it to fight at the top.
LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said that the absence of the main bullpen pitchers should be made an advantage. a turn of thought.
Coach Yeom said, `We can't help what's gone by,' adding, `I think it's important whether we make that part our advantage.' Then "Starting can be difficult. But having three players to come back from the game may be a big plus compared to other teams" Lee Jung-yong, who joined Sangmu with Yoo Young-chan and Ham Deok-ju, will return after mid-June, so it can be a big boost for the three to return after the middle of the season.
Coach Yeom saw them as a period of nurturing until they came. This is because the three spots should be filled by prospects. Coach Yeom said, `I think it's important how much we nurture and how well we hold out until they come back so that the team can make it wellIf the team is made well, it will be an opportunity to run when they return, and if it is an opportunity to hold out, it will be a power to hold out until the end. Of course, the start is regrettable, but it will be a strength after July."
Coach Yeom did not predict the timing of their return in advance. When the news of Yoo Young-chan's first injury was reported, he needed about three months of rehabilitation, but coach Yeom set the timing of his return in the second half, saying that it is not easy for the microfractures to stick together. Lee Jung-yong threw at Sangmu and was discharged from the military after mid-June, so he can return immediately, but Ham Deok-ju and Yoo Young-chan have no choice but to change depending on when their bodies are fully recovered and the rehabilitation process. Yeom said, `I'm thinking about the second half of the year. Then it's good if you come quickly" He said "It's a good time because it's time for pitchers to get tired and they need players powerfully by then." The question is how well they hold out until they come. It is likely to be LG's mound's homework to endure somehow with an offensive volume.
