Disappointment is a blessing in disguise?

Will Eric Pedi, the ace of the NC Dinos who dominated the KBO League, have a chance to wear the Major League championship ring.

Peddy made his Major League Baseball Milwaukee Brewers debut. Peddy took the mound as the second pitcher against the Arizona Diamondbacks at American Family Field on the 28th (Korea time).




Milwaukee announced Peddy's one-year contract ahead of the game, and Peddy was put into practice immediately on the day of the contract. Starter Queen Priest suddenly left due to injury, and a plan was made for Pedi to take the mound following opener Aaron Ashby.

Peddy pitched relatively well, allowing two runs in four ⅓ innings. As soon as he transferred, he played his first game, so he was fine. However, with a 1-0 lead, he gave up a 1-2 come-from-behind score and the team lost 2-3, causing a loss.

However, a move to Milwaukee for Pedigree could be a `God's move.' Peddy was named regular season MVP as a member of the NC Dinos in the KBO League in the 2023 season, winning multiple wins, earned run average, and strikeouts, which are the flower of the pitcher's title. NC played fall baseball with a 20-6 record with an overwhelming 2.00 ERA with a sweeper 'Magoo' that improved its completeness in Korea, and Peddy signed a two-year, $15 million contract with the Chicago White Sox and wrote 'reverse export myth'.

He has also been on a roll with the White Sox. It was a problem because the team was weak, and Peddy kept his starting rotation firmly. After going 7-4 in 21 games, he was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals during last season. It was a good sign. This was because St. Louis, which competed for the top spot at the time, took Pedi out of necessity.

But I had a nightmare this season. He remained 3-10 in 20 games in St. Louis and was shocked. He tried to make a comeback with the Atlanta Braves, but was notified of his second release on the 25th.

Meanwhile, Milwaukee took Pedi with a surprise recruit. Milwaukee is making a splash by ranking first in the National League Central this season. Even though he lost on the day, he has a winning rate of 63 wins and 51 losses. The only team in the league with a .60 percent winning percentage. The gap between the Chicago Cubs and the second-ranked Chicago Cubs is 6.5 games, so the district championship is very likely.




Milwaukee paid attention to Peddy, who can be used as a starter and a bullpen. If a problem arises somewhere, such as a starting position, as on this day, it can be used immediately as an alternative power.

It's also an opportunity for Pedi. If only the good performance shown last year is reproduced, Milwaukee can join the roster when it advances to the postseason. Wearing a major league championship ring also means you can dream about it.
