Two main outfielders have been recruited. The lineup has become stronger, and there are other veterans who will return. What will be the traffic arrangement.

After a huge 3-on-3 trade, the NC Dinos finished their first game. NC lost 4 to 6 in an away game against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 29th.

Despite the last-minute chase, he lost without overcoming the bullpen turmoil, but this game was meaningful as it was the first game NC played after changing members to a trade.




Through a trade with the KIA Tigers on the 28th, he gave up pitcher Kim Si-hoon, Han Jae-seung, and infielder Chung Hyeon-chang, and received outfielders Choi Won-joon, Lee Woo-sung, and infielder Hong Jong-pyo.

NC immediately registered Choi Won-joon and Lee Woo-sung in the first-team entry and also made them start. In the match against Lotte on the day, Choi Won-joon was the second hitter-center fielder and Lee Woo-sung was the sixth hitter-left fielder. The inclusion of the two added more weight to the lineup.

Shortstop Kim Joo-won and center fielder Choi Won-joon set up No. 1 and No. 2 'Table Setter', and Lee Woo-sung was placed in the center lineup with cleanups leading to Park Min-woo, Oh Young-soo, and Park Gun-woo.

Currently, NC's foreign hitter Matt Davidson is out due to injury. Davison, who has recovered quickly, has improved to the extent that he will play in the Futures League on the 29th as he suffered incontinence in his right rib. Even after hitting, he is in good shape.

If Davison joins the team, a national team-class explosive lineup will be completed in terms of experience and possibility to the top and center. Of course, this includes the assumption that trade players find their condition to some extent.

Choi Won-joon and Lee Woo-sung were silent with no hits in four at-bats and no hits in three at-bats in their first transfer game in NC uniforms. Lee Woo-sung had one sacrifice fly RBI. It seems that the team has not fully awakened yet at a time when the flow is not good enough to have only five hits.

However, we are still curious about how NC's outfield traffic arrangement will proceed. If Choi Won-joon and Lee Woo-sung continue to show good performances, veterans Kwon Hee-dong and Son Ah-seop's chances to play will inevitably decrease. Even if Davison returns to first base and veteran hitters take turns playing the designated hitter role. For now, the number itself has increased.

Kwon Hee-dong, who has been sluggish with a batting average in the last 10 games, started as ninth hitter-right fielder on the day, and Son Ah-seop, who suffered a muscle injury in his right side, is currently preparing to return by performing aerobic exercise and treatment at the same time.

NC currently includes Kwon Hee-dong, Park Gun-woo, Choi Won-joon and Lee Woo-sung in the first-team outfield entry. Choi Jung-won, who can multi-task at home and abroad, cannot be left out. As NC's stance has been called for 'self-cultivation' from a long-term perspective, it is also a point of concern that the chances of promising players to play are reduced.

At the end of this season, Choi Won-joon and Son Ah-seop, who will qualify as FA, could also have a direct impact. NC's coach Lee Ho-joon's plan for his team's 2026 season, which is his second year, also depends on what kind of performance they will show in the second half of the season 'outfielder war'.
