KT Coach Lee Kang-cheol "For Kang Baek-ho's Vacancy, Moon Sang-cheol and Lee Ho-yeon will be Put in"
KT, 2nd place in regular season, 1st game of playoffs against NC on the 30th, "I expected Peddy to start... I'm worried about whether he will be the 3rd starter."
KT Wiz will fill the void left by Kang Baek-ho due to injury with Moon Sang-cheol and Lee Ho-yeon.
After the final team training for the professional baseball playoffs (PO) held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 29th, KT coach Lee Kang-cheol said, “It is difficult for Kang Baek-ho to play not only in the PO but also in the Korean Series (KS),” and “(Designated hitter) Moon Sang-cheol.
“We plan to bring in one of Lee Ho-yeon and use the rest as pinch hitters,” he said. 온라인카지노사이트
On the 29th, Kang Baek-ho suffered a torn right side muscle while batting in the Cheongbaekjeon match and was diagnosed as having to focus on recovery for at least three weeks.
It is difficult to play not only in NC Dinos and PO starting on the 30th, but also in LG Twins and KS starting on the 7th.
Director Lee Kang-cheol erased Kang Baek-ho from his mind and re-imagined his skills.
Moon Sang-cheol showed his strength in the game, hitting three walk-off hits this season alone.
Infielder Lee Ho-yeon's defense is a bit shaky, but his hitting ability is good.
He had no physical problems, and in June he had a monthly batting average of 0.354 and in July he had a monthly batting average of 0.357.
Outfielder Kim Min-hyuk, who injured his thigh muscle while fielding last month, can also be used as a designated hitter.
Manager Lee Kang-cheol said, "Kim Min-hyuk continued his batting, including in the Blue and White match."
The big picture was also drawn in the mound operation plan.
Coach Lee Kang-cheol, who appointed William Cuevas as the starter in the first PO game, said, "It's going as it should," and added, "However, I haven't decided whether to go with the 3rd or 4th starter."
If KT uses a 4-starter system, Cuevas, Wes Benjamin, Ko Young-pyo, and Bae Je-seong are scheduled to appear as starters.
Eom Sang-baek, who recovered from injury, will play long relief, while Pilseungjo Park Young-hyun and Kim Jae-yoon will play the back door.
It gets complicated when you start with a three-start system.
Elijah, who is difficult to use as a relief pitcher, may become the starter and the remaining starting resources may go into the bullpen.
Coach Lee Kang-cheol also used Benjamin as a relief pitcher in last year's postseason.
Coach Lee said, “It is difficult to reveal much,” and added, “Once the game is played, we will decide on the starting management plan.”
Regarding NC's selection of ace Eric Peddie as the first PO selection, he said, "I expected it."
Coach Lee Kang-cheol said, “We have to deal with them the same way (as in the regular season),” and expressed his determination, “As we have good starting pitchers, if we fight well in the early stages, we will be able to win the game in the second half of the game.”
KT, ranked 2nd in the regular season, will play the first game of the PO in Suwon on the 30th against NC, which passed the semi-playoffs, with 3 wins out of 5.
NC announced the selection of Ace Peddy, who was unable to pitch during the postseason due to injury, and KT selected Cuevas.
