"I'm not sure if I can make it in one turn, so I decided to take a break."

Doosan Bears left-hander Choi Seung-yong was canceled from the first-team entry ahead of the match against the KIA Tigers in Jamsil on the 17th. Doosan sent infielder Yeo Dong-gun to the second division with Choi Seung-yong, and called up pitcher Yang Jae-hoon and catcher Ryu Hyun-jun.

Choi Seung-yong started against KIA in Jamsil on the 16th and was replaced in two innings due to a broken left index finger nail. His pace was good enough to record 24 ⅓ innings and an ERA of 1.09 in five games in the second half, but his broken nails are likely to be harsh.




Doosan's acting manager Cho Sung-hwan said, "Who will fill Choi Seung-yong's vacancy depends on the pitching details of starting pitcher Je Hwan-yu."

Je Hwan-yu wore the Doosan uniform as the 19th overall pick in the second round of the 2020 Rookie Draft. He recorded 2-1 losses, 51 ⅔ innings, 48 strikeouts, and a 2.96 ERA in 10 Futures League games this year. This is why he took the opportunity to start his first first team.

Acting coach Cho said, `If Je Hwan-yu throws well today (17th), Choi Min-seok can come into the starting rotation next week. I think it will be filled naturally once. I think Je Hwan-yu's pitching today will be a reference point in managing the starting lineup in the future."




Yang Eui-ji, who was worried about being replaced in two innings with Choi Seung-yong, is fortunately in good physical condition. Yang Eui-ji took a rest due to pain in her left groin. Doosan called catcher Ryu Hyun-joon to prepare for a situation where Yang Eui-ji could not defend.

Doosan made the starting lineup with Jung Soo-bin (center fielder), Oh Myung-jin (first baseman), Jake Cave (right fielder), Yang Eui-ji (designated hitter), Ahn Jae-seok (striker), Park Jun-soon (third baseman), Kim Min-seok (left fielder), Kim Ki-yeon (fosu), and Lee Yoo-chan (second baseman).
