LG’s selection resources leave one after another… Right-hander Kang Hyo-jong will use the vacant spot.
Bad news struck the professional baseball LG Twins.
Left-handed pitcher Kim Yun-sik (24) went to the operating table, and key starting resource Choi Won-tae (27) was expunged from the first team due to injury.
LG coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said ahead of the home game against SSG Landers in the 2024 KBO League held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 8th, “Kim Yun-sik decided to undergo ligament reconstruction surgery on the 10th due to damage to the medial collateral ligament of his left elbow,” and “It is difficult for him to return within this season.” He said. 바카라사이트
In addition, “Choi Won-tae felt pain in his left hip muscle (gluteus medius) after finishing his starting pitch yesterday, so he was removed from the first team entry.”
Kim Yun-sik is a key resource who played as a key starter from 2022 to last year.
He started 17 games last season and recorded 6 wins, 4 losses, and an ERA of 4.22.
However, Kim Yun-sik did not play his role this season.
Chronic left elbow pain was the problem.
He did not make the opening entry, and performed poorly in the game against the KIA Tigers on the 26th of last month, which was his only first-team appearance this season, allowing 7 hits, 1 walk, and 4 runs in 3 innings.
Kim Yun-sik, who was sent back to the second team, concentrated on recovering his elbow, but did not see any improvement.
In the end, after consulting with the club, it was decided to go on the operating table.
Ligament reconstruction surgery takes more than a year to return to work.
Kim Yun-sik plans to enlist in active duty immediately after undergoing surgery.
