‘Choi Won -jun and Lee Woo -sung Trade’ KIA, eventually this was also possible ‘Hampyeong Tigers’ (SS Focus)

Sports | baseball

(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Dong -young) KIA has made a decision. Trade was made for the homework of ‘reinforcement of bullpen’. The resources given are quite big. Choi Won -jun (28) and Lee Woo -sung (31) were given. He gave me the main and main players. This is possible. It is the existence of Hampyeong Tigers.

Choi Won -jun and Lee Woo -sung were not very good this season. This is a decisive reason for the trade card. Choi Won -joon bats 0.229, OPS (on -base rate+batting average) 0.595. Lee Woo -sung recorded 0.642 OPS with a batting average of 0.219.

In the case of Choi Won -jun, he was motivated because he was ahead of a free agent (FA). Perhaps because of the burden, grades fell significantly. Lee Woo -sung does not appear in 2023-2024. It is often the subject of criticism.

If they had flew, they should have no trade. There are other reasons. The alternative resource has emerged. Tigers from Hampyeong.

The first player in the first hand is Oh Sun -yeo. Already a career so far. This is the first time that he has played more than 70 games in the first group after his debut. Home runs are already two -digit with batting average around 30 %. I came to the professional in 2019. In the seventh year, I finally see the light.

There is also Kim Seok -hwan. Although not in the first group now, he made a strong impression while in the first group. Beating 0.274, OPS 0.722. On June 22, he also shot a decisive home run in Literature SSG.

I joined in 2017. At the time, Park Heung -sik’s blow coach left a favorite review that “I think I see Lee Seung -yeop.” It is not yet completely broken. Instead, the realm of ‘possibility’ should be seen as it has surpassed.

The veteran Kim Ho -ryeong was also born. After debut, he has the highest batting average and OPS. Defense has been reputed since his debut. Ko Jong -wook also has a lot of batting average, but he plays a vital role in the team with a batting average of more than 30 percent.

Oh Sun -woo is basically first baseman. But you can see the outfield. Kim Seok-hwan, Kim Ho-ryeong-Ko Jong-wook is also outfielder. Obviously ‘depth’ is not bad. So I was able to send Choi Won-jun and Lee Woo-sung. It is the power of Hampyeong.

It is true that KIA has slowed. The evaluation of ‘absolute first’ before the season is colorless. The situation where you have to focus on the 5th fight. Still, power is not very weak. It’s something twisted now. It can improve again. The trade can be a ‘met’. Raining99@sportsseoul.com
