LG Twins veteran pitcher Kim Kang-ryul failed to join the Korean Series.
The LG Twins finished their training camp in Icheon and held their first training session on the 21st at Jamsil Stadium, where Games 1 and 2 of the Korean Series and Games 6 and 7 will be held. He prepared for the Korean Series by adding defensive training to basic training.
However, Kim Kang-ryul was not seen during the pitchers' defensive training. Several pitchers were spraying the ball in the bullpen, so I checked, but Kim Kang-ryul was not seen in the bullpen. Kim Kang-ryul, who was on the Icheon training list, did not take the mound in three practice games held in Icheon. It has been confirmed that Kim Kang-ryul has been excluded from the list of Jamsil. Lee Ji-gang joins the team instead.
LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `I saw Kim Kang-ryul pitching, but his ball power hasn't come up yet.' `I excluded Jamsil training because I thought it was difficult to throw in the Korean Series. We should look forward to next season."
Kim Kang-ryul is a veteran FA recruited by LG with Jang Hyun-sik to reinforce the bullpen ahead of this season. Kim Kang-ryul, who joined the Doosan Bears in the second fourth round in 2007, had 26 wins, 14 losses, 46 saves and 56 holds in 448 games until last year. Both the finisher and the setup man changed the locker room from Doosan to LG for 3+1 years and a total of 1.4 billion won.

Closer Yoo Young-chan is out due to a fine fracture, and even Jang Hyun-sik kept the LG bullpen strong in the early days of the opening, which was not due to an ankle injury. He pitched in 12 games and recorded a 1.46 ERA with one win, one save and four holds. However, his last appearance in the regular season was on May 11 when he allowed no hits and one walk in one inning against the Samsung Lions and recorded a hold. Since then, he has not returned after going down to the second division due to shoulder discomfort. Throwing in a Futures League game at the end of the season showed the possibility of taking the postseason and being included in the Icheon training list, raising expectations.
Asked about Kim Kang-ryul during the Icheon training camp, head coach Yeom said, `"The ball should come up." "I'm going to make a final decision after looking at the ball power."It's not about playing baseball by name. You have to be a ball to be able to live up to your name.'
The result of seeing Kim Kang-ryul's condition in person during the camp was that the ball power to catch the opponent did not come up. Unfortunately, a veteran pitcher is missing and the Korean Series will be played.
Coach Yeom said "Jang Hyun-sik changed his forkball grip, and he's in pretty good shape right now. Even if only Jang Hyun-sik enters the must-win group, the bullpen can become quite thick with Song Seung-ki."
