LG Twins general manager Cha Myung-seok started communicating with fans through his YouTube channel. He also answered foreign pitchers who fans were frustrated with.
On the afternoon of the 16th, ahead of the start of the second half, Cha appeared on 'El Tube wanted to communicate and had time to solve the fans' curiosity. Cha is the only one of the 10 team leaders to appear on YouTube before, during, and after the season to provide time for communication to answer fans' questions about the club. This year, he also used the All-Star break to answer fans' questions during the season.
The question that came up from the beginning was a replacement for a foreign pitcher. As Yonny Chirinos and Eliaser Hernandez showed poor performance in the second half of the first half, there was public opinion about the replacement, but LG has not moved yet.
Chirinos went 7-4 with a 3.48 ERA, and Hernandez stayed 4-3 with a 4.24 ERA after taking six weeks off with a hamstring injury. The two won only 11 games together. It is a big difference compared to the Hanwha Eagles, who ranked first, who won 21 games with Cody Ponce (11 wins) and Ryan Weiss (10 wins) one-two punch. I couldn't erase my regret for foreign pitchers as I finished the first half of the year in second place, 4.5 games behind Hanwha. Like last year, Hernandez still has the disadvantage of being hit by batters a lot after the batting order turned around, and Chirinos threw well and suddenly collapsed in the 5th and 6th innings.
When reporters ask questions about foreign pitchers, Cha replies, "'I'm preparing to replace them.'" If the article goes out like that, will the throwing pitcher throw hard. It's hard to say I believe soThe leader has no choice but to talk about two tracks when it's good and when it's bad. I am looking into various things because the market in the U.S. is not good. You might think that the club is letting go, but it's important for the foreign players we have to rebound, and it's also important to prepare to bring better players when they don't rebound."
Regarding not recruiting Ariel Furado, who is performing well after being released from Kiwoom as a free agent and moving to Samsung, "Kium initially tried to trade Furado."It didn't go well, so I became a free agent later. At that time, we were already at the end of our foreign player contract."
One fan said of LG, `I'm doing nothing to avoid being insultedIn response to the criticism of ", Cha replied, "Why are you doing YouTube broadcasts if you don't think you're going to do anything?" and "If you're not going to do anything, you're not going to do this broadcast and listen to the fans' voices."
