“You have to make sure you are prepared.”
The second half of the 2023 season for Lee Seung-hyun (21), a left-handed pitcher from the Samsung Lions 1st nomination, does not seem to be easy. In the second half, the team tried to rebound and raised the ranking from the bottom to the 8th place, but Lee Seung-hyun’s pitching content left 2% regret.
Lee Seung-hyun is sluggish with an average ERA of 6.43 in 2 holds without winning or losing in 10 games in the second half. Compared to the first half, his batting average also increased (0.252 → 0.269). In August alone, his ERA was 9.00 in 5 games and 1 hold. His monthly ERA is the worst since May 10.38.
On August 1st and 2nd, against Daegu KIA and against Daegu LG on the 4th, three consecutive runs were lost, and on the 6th, a scoreless pitch was played, but on the 11th, against Incheon SSG Landers, he failed to catch an outcount, allowed a walk, and then went down the mound. went. After the game on the 11th, Lee Seung-hyun went down to the 2nd team. It was the second 2nd team erasure of the season after being down to the 2nd team on May 17th.
He had ups and downs in the first half, but his performance in the second half was better. He went 1-4 with 5 saves and 5 holds with a 4.55 ERA in 33 games. He was trusted by Samsung coach Park Jin-man to the point of finishing in place of Oh Seung-hwan, who had been faltering. However, in the second half of the season, the team is struggling, and coach Park Jin-man is also regretful. He started the second half and 5 games were good, but the next 5 games were poor.
Manager Park Jin-man, whom we met at Daejeon Hanwha Life Insurance Eagles Park on the 24th, said, “Lee Seung-hyun is training at Futures. He has to show something in Futures so he can come up. He went down with bad balance even when going down. He said that he can rise only when he is balanced.”토토사이트
He continued, “I plan to call up after continuing to practice at Futures, gaining speed, and stabilizing my pitching. He must be sure to prepare,” he said, delivering a strong message.
After Lee Seung-hyun went down to the 2nd team, he digested one game. On the 20th, he played the bullpen against the Lotte Futures team. At the time, he pitched 1 inning, 1 walk, 1 strikeout and no runs. Samsung wants Lee Seung-hyun to take charge of an inning and throw his own ball even when dealing with another batter.
Seunghyun Lee has been called Samsung’s future since his 2021 debut. In 41 games in the 2021 season, he recorded 1 win, 4 losses, 7 holds, 5.26, and last season, he recorded 58 games, 2 wins, 4 losses, 1 save and 14 holds, with an average ERA of 4.53, and took his first double-digit hold in his debut.
When he went down to the second team for the first time in the season last May, he filled 10 days and immediately came up to the first team. When will it come up again this time?
