“Decision as soon as possible”… 2024 Season ‘Autumn Baseball Hero’

(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kang Yoon -sik) “I want to decide as fast as possible.”

The replacement of LG Elliers Hernandez (30), which was nicknamed ‘El Dongwon’ last year in the postseason, seems to be a strong replacement. Preparation for replacement has been continued before. The club is also expected to answer as soon as possible. In this state, replacement seems to be strong.

A LG official said in a call with Sports Seoul on the 2nd, “We have already prepared a list and prepared for replacement. We plan to decide in the early days, including the pitch today (2 days) in the process of preparing for replacement. We are preparing as soon as possible.”

Hernandez joined the team on behalf of Casey Kelly, who left the team in the second half of last year. After joining, he recorded 3 wins and 2 losses and an average ERA of 4.02. The regular season performance was not very satisfactory.

However, it was completely different in the fall baseball. He played an active part in the bullpen, not the start. KT and the semi -playoffs were all in five games. In five games, he scored 7.1 innings and 1 hold 2 saves. In the playoffs and playoffs, he wrote 3.2 innings and 1 saves.

Based on the playoffs, he succeeded in re -signing. From the Spring Camp, I prepared the season by making my body steadily. Expectations were also high. Before the season, Yeom Kyung -yeop said, “I want you to win about 15 wins.”

The start of the season was good. On March 25, he scored seven innings and one hit and one walk in Jamsil Hanwha. However, on the second start of the season, on April 2, he was sluggish with eight runs in 0.2 innings. It wasn’t very good since then. On April 15, he recorded six innings ‘Noh Hit’ in Jamsil Samsung, but he was diagnosed with a pre -immigration damage on the right side for six weeks.

Hernandez recorded 4 wins and 4 losses and 4.50 ERAs before the Daegu Samsung War. It is true that it did not meet expectations in many ways. In the end, the LG club is also draining a knife. Since the replacement player has not yet been confirmed, it may be possible to start one more time since the Samsung War on the 2nd, but it seems difficult to avoid replacement.

The atmosphere is good after the beginning of the second half. Hanwha was first in the first place. The difference that took place up to 5.5 games is now one game. A situation that can be more resilient. LG is also expected to win the game by replacing ‘El Dongwon’. skywalker@sportsseoul.com
