    LG Twins Starting Shortstop Oh Ji-hwan Returns

    LG’s Starting Shortstop Oh Ji-hwan Returns… Doosan’s New Foreigner Shirakawa Joins

    2023 Korean Series MVP Oh Ji-hwan (34, LG Twins) returned to the first team.

    Keisho Shirakawa (23), who was recruited by Doosan Bears as a short-term replacement foreign player, greeted his new teammates for the first time.

    LG has added starting shortstop Oh Ji-hwan to the first-team roster ahead of the home game against the KIA Tigers at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 11th.

    Catcher Kim Seong-woo has been promoted to the first-team along with Oh Ji-hwan, while catcher Heo Do-hwan and pitcher Kim Jin-su have been sent down to the second-team. 바카라사이트 추천

    Oh Ji-hwan’s first appearance on the first-team roster is 42 days after he was placed on the injured list on May 30 due to a sprained right wrist extensor tendon.

    Ji -Hwan Oh’s return to the first team was delayed further due to an injury to his left thigh muscle (hamstring) during wrist rehabilitation.

    Oh Ji-hwan, who started as a shortstop in the Futures (2nd team) League game against the Hanwha Eagles in Seosan on the 10th and hit 1 hit in 4 at-bats, was declared ‘rehabilitation complete’ and was called up to the first team on the 11th.

    He will start as the 6th batter and shortstop in the game against KIA on the 11th.

    Shirakawa visited Suwon Stadium that day, greeted his new Doosan teammates, and warmed up with catch ball.

    On the 10th, Doosan signed a 4 million yen (approximately 34.3 million won) ‘6-week contract’ with Shirakawa.

    This year, the Korean professional baseball league introduced a new system where if an existing foreign player is injured to the extent that he needs treatment for more than 6 weeks, he is listed on the rehabilitation player list and a replacement foreign player can play until the player returns.

    SSG Landers first used this system to recruit Keisho Shirakawa in late May when Roenis Elias was out for more than six weeks with a hamstring injury.

    Shirakawa, who came from the Japanese independent league, pitched in five games for SSG, posting 2 wins, 2 losses, and an ERA of 5.09, and said goodbye to SSG at the end of his six-week contract.

    Choi Yun-gyeom Suggestion, Not Use the Current Director

    Director Choi Yun-gyeom’s Suggestion… “Let’s Not Use the Current Director as a Member of the Power Strengthening Committee”

    Coach Choi Yun-gyeom of professional soccer team K-League 2 Cheongju, North Chungcheong Province,

    proposed that the current head coach should not be included in the Korea Football Association’s national team strength strengthening committee.

    Director Choi met with reporters ahead of the ‘Hana Bank K-League 2024 Opening Media Day’ held at the Seoul Grand Ballroom of The Plaza Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul on the 26th and said,

    “I think it is better not to use the club team manager as a member of the power reinforcement committee.” 에볼루션 바카라사이트

    Coach Choi said that it would be much more efficient to appoint game supervisors or the Korea Professional Football League Technical Research Group (TSG) as members instead of current coaches.

    He served as a committee member under former Power Strengthening Committee Chairman Michael Mueller.

    The Strengthening Committee, including Coach Choi,

    came together at the end of a meeting on the 15th and requested the Association to replace former national team coach Jurgen Klinsmann.

    Coach Choi explained that it is difficult for the current coach to focus on the committee that supports the national team because he is responsible for the club team’s performance.

    He said that rather than a coach, a leader from the professional soccer league TSG,

    who examines the K-League extensively and writes technical reports himself,

    will contribute more to strengthening the national team.

    In particular, it was believed that TSG personnel would be of great help in power analysis if a foreign leader,

    like former Coach Jurgen Klinsmann, was appointed who was evaluated as not carefully examining K-League resources.

    Coach Choi Yun-gyeom confessed,

    “In fact, I am also a sinner in some respects when it comes to the national team and the Power Strengthening Committee.

    That is why I have not been able to open my mouth easily until now.”

    The Strength Enhancement Committee is an organization that is involved in the overall management of national teams at each level,

    including the appointment, dismissal, and renewal of leaders for the men’s and women’s national teams and national teams for each age group 18 years or older.

    Director Choi and other members, including former Chairman Müller,

    left the Power Strengthening Committee with the dismissal of former Manager Klinsmann.

    This is because the Football Association appointed Jeong Hae-seong,

    chairman of the competition committee, as the new chairman of the power strengthening committee, and also replaced all members.
