Is Ha Joo-seok's time starting.

Hanwha Eagles head coach Kim Kyung-moon made a decision.

Hanwha canceled An Chi-hong, Lim Jong-chan and Kwon Min-gyu from the first-team entry on the 7th when there was no game.




It's a shocking move. An Chi-hong is an FA hitter brought by Hanwha with a total investment of 7.2 billion won. However, after the opening, he had to be notified of his second-tier performance due to his extreme slump of batting average of 67 in 10 games.

Im Jong-chan, who played as the starting player in the opening game after fierce outfield competition, will also go down to the second division amid a poor performance of batting average of 13.6 in 11 games.

Why is it shocking. This is because it means that it was difficult to endure any longer even with coach Kim's tenacity. Coach Kim is famous for his style that does not change throughout the season once he chooses the main player. An Chi-hong was selected as the main second baseman and increased the intensity of defensive training from last year's closing camp. Ahead of the opening "Outfield decided to play with Im Jong-chan and Kim Tae-yeon. I think a lot about it before I decide, but once I decide, I don't change it well. I want them to take the opportunity and become stars" had exposed the wind.

However, as he fell to the bottom of the 13 games with four wins and nine losses, coach Kim was forced to make a difficult decision. He has a team batting average of 169. the lowest of the ten clubs. be alone in one's ten percent range.

For now, Ha Joo-seok is expected to fill one seat. Ha earned his first career FA qualification since the end of last season, but failed to sign after being hit by cold winds in the market. In the end, he signed a one-year contract with Hanwha, the original team, worth a total of 110 million won. However, coach Kim's idea did not include Ha Joo-seok, and he could not go to the spring camp.

However, Ha Joo-seok did not give up and sharpened his sword in the second division, and after the opening of the Futures League, he hit .485 in 10 games. Although he was not registered, he accompanied him on an away trip to Daegu against the Samsung Lions last weekend to train. If there is no unexpected incident, one of the seats that three people are missing is expected to be Ha Joo-seok's.




Ha's main position is shortstop, but FA Shim Woo-joon is here. Competition for second base could be easier right now. It's where An Chi-hong is missing. There is Hwang Young-mook, but Hwang Young-mook is also hitting only 20%. If it is a card to change the atmosphere, there is a possibility that Ha Joo-seok will start.
