[마이데일리 = 창원 김진성 기자] “Because of Shinsoo Choo…”
It was on February 23 that Choo Shin-soo’s participation in SSG was announced. I arrived in Korea on February 25th and joined the SSG team on the 11th after self-isolation in Changwon. And on the 21st, 10 days later, he will have a debut match against NC in the KBO League demonstration game.
By the end of February, clubs’ basic seasonal management plans are often set at 7-80% or more. Only one or two digits in each part of the tuta are covered through practice and demonstration games, and most players work to raise their condition in time for the pennant race to begin.
In this situation, it was decided to join SSG as a super heavyweight Choo Shin-soo, not another player. After the first season of the Command Tower, and even the signboard changed, the head speed of Director Kim Won-hyung had to be complicated. Anyway, the power upgrade was certain, so I had to maximize the synergy of the outfielders unconditionally.
After worrying, coach Kim nailed Choo Shin-soo as left fielder twice. Of course, there is a possibility that the batting order will change depending on the situation, and you can go out as a designated hitter. However, you can basically think of it as 2nd left fielder. Although Choo Shin-soo considered the role and position he could play best, it was also the result of considering the abilities of existing outfielders.
Shin-soo Choo played a lot of right field in the major leagues, but also experienced left fielder. However, the SSG’s right fielder is Hanyu Island. Hanyu Island does not have much experience in left field or center field.[IthoughtitwouldbepsychologicallyshakenifImovedmyposition”
After all, considering Hanyu Island, it is calculated that Shin-soo Choo, who has experience in left field in the major leagues, will be used as the left fielder. For SSG, it is important to utilize Hanyu Island’s long hitting power. However, the season is long and we do not know what will happen. It is also difficult for older Choo Shin-soo to go to left field every game. The demonstration game that will be held from this day is a test venue. Director Kim said, “Tomorrow, Yoo-Som will be used as left fielder.” It means that Hanyu Island’s adaptation to the left field will also be examined.
O Tae-gon’s appointment as center field on this day also stands out. It is an internal and outfield utility agent, but has a high proportion of outfields. In the case of last season, he played a lot in left field. The same is true of Go Jong-wook, who goes out to the left field on this day. Director Kim said, “If Choo Shin-soo enters the designated hitter, he may enter another position or take a break.”
