Returning 'Wild Horse' Puig stressed that he will never be easy on Kiwoom Heroes' 2025 season. As a person who has experienced the KBO League in the 2022 season, he spoke in a confident tone.
Puig arrived at Incheon International Airport on the 5th after Kiwoom's spring camp in Arizona and Taiwan.
The star Puig, who commanded the U.S. Major League Baseball, left Korea after playing for a season after surprisingly joining Kiwoom in 2022. And after three years, he returned to the KBO League wearing a Kiwoom uniform again.
Puig, whom I met at Incheon International Airport, said, `My physical condition is so good. I will prepare well for the first exhibition game against the NC Dinos"After the spring camp, he expressed his determination to definitely raise his body in the exhibition game."

When asked if there was a pitcher he wanted to play against, Puig, who had already become 「Koreanized」, would have expected the answer "Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha), but there is no player in particular in mind." Even when I was in Korea, there was no memorable pitcher. However, Korean pitchers played baseball smartly and were fast-paced, so they should prepare well," he replied.
When Puig was present, Kiwoom overturned expectations and advanced to the Korean Series, but remained at the bottom of the two seasons. Puig said "It's true that there's a lot of power leakage. But a real game in Taiwan??Looking at it, I felt that our players were working really hard. We won't end up in 10th place. I don't know if I can make it to the postseason. However, he declared war, saying, "I will never stay in 10th place."
