Why did this happen again when we had to face LG with four wins and eight losses, but Choi Jung disappeared

Another bad news for SSG Landers. SSG will face Kiwoom Heroes at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 14th. However, Choi Jeong's name is missing from the starting lineup announced before the game. Instead of Choi Jung, Kim Sung-hyun will play as the starting third baseman.
The reason why Choi Jeong is excluded from the selection is because he has symptoms in his body. Fortunately, it's not a major injury. Manager Lee Soo-yong said, `As soon as I came out to the ballpark today, the training coach approached me carefully. He said he would have to wait for about two to three days.' SSG's rotation schedule has been delayed due to discomfort in the thigh area of Drew Anderson, the core of the mound, and Kim Kwang-hyun is also skipping the mound due to shoulder inflammation. Mitch White, who was bruised by a training hit, will return on the 15th, and he has to consider alternative selection more than two days a week.
The reason for the particular concern is that SSG will face the LG Twins, the No. 1 team, this weekend. SSG will play three consecutive home games against LG in Incheon from the 15th. LG, which is currently ranked first with an overwhelming pace, is a team that was very strong against SSG this season with 8 wins and 4 losses. As for SSG, as initially planned, White and Anderson played in the three consecutive LG games, and the batters were able to compete almost as a whole, but the calculation was canceled.
Director Lee Soo-yong said, `This keeps happening. The results against LG this year were so bad, I thought I wanted to try it (this is how it happened). Still, you have to try until the end to find out. I'll prepare with the thought that I'll start the game again today (14th)"I'm determined. In SSG, White takes the mound on the first day of the three consecutive games against LG, and Kim Gun-woo prepares to start on the second day. The final day selection is still undecided.
