Why did Weidner Thank NC for Releasing it
“I’m also grateful to the NC Dinos.“
Foreign pitcher Taylor Weidner was rehired.
Weidner, who played for the NC Dinos, was notified of his release.
The NC asked the KBO to issue a waiver notice for Weidner
and after Albert Suarez was injured, Samsung took Weidner in its arms.
In this way, Weidner was able to play more in the KBO League.토토
Weidner pitched 11 games for NC and pitched 61/4 innings, posting a 2-4 record and 52.7 ERA. Looking higher
NC chose to part ways with Weidner
who was on the verge of returning to the United States.
According to the KBO rules
a club that wants to transfer a player contract to a waiver must apply to the governor for the transfer of the player’s contract within seven days of the waiver announcement.
Weidner was waived on the 4th
and Samsung set up a negotiating table with Weidner on the 10th.
Despite being notified of his release
Weidner continued his training at NC.
I was able to take care of my body steadily under the consideration of NC.
Weidner, who joined the Samsung squad ahead of the SSG Landers game at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 11th, was confident in his physical condition.
At the same time
he did not forget to express his gratitude to his former team, NC.
Weidner said
“I’m very grateful to the people involved in the NC club.
Even though I was leaving the team, they allowed me to continue training.
He also pitched in the bullpen and helped me get to baseball practice.
It really helped me a lot. After I pitched, he gave me therapy. Thanks to this help, I was able to stay in good shape.”
In the not-too-distant future, Samsung will deal with NC.
They will face NC in Daegu on September 9.
It’s unclear if Weidner will be able to make it to the starting lineup
but if he does, he’s determined to win.
Weidner said:
“It’s always fun to play against my former team.
I have a lot of good memories as well. I want to meet with the players and talk about this and that.
Still, I’m a competitor
so I’ll do my best to deal with it
” he said, vowing to fight hard against NC.
For now, Weidner is scheduled to start before SSG on the 13th.
After joining the squad
he immediately worked out of the bullpen to check his condition.
“When I started pitching, the things I’ve been doing are holding up,” he said.
I want the batters to help me by hitting aggressively on the day I go to the plate
he said
expressing his desire to play for Samsung.
