Park Hae-min, who speaks his feelings about winning.
Will this be the last year for this strongest lineup. It is the strongest lineup that has won two championships in three years. LG Twins ranked No. 1 in team batting percentage in 2023 and this year, No. 3 last year, and No. 1 in their three-year career.

LG has a solid nine starting players. Catcher Park Dong-won, first baseman Austin, second baseman Shin Min-jae, third baseman Moon Bo-kyung, shortstop Oh Ji-hwan, and outfielder Kim Hyun-soo, Park Hae-min, Moon Sung-joo and Hong Chang-ki will play. Four outfield players will take turns and one will be the designated hitter, completing the starting lineup of nine players.

With this lineup completed in 2023, LG won an emotional integrated championship for the first time in 29 years that year, and slowed to third place last year, but this year, it won the regular league title again and is aiming for an integrated championship of the stepping stone.




It is a solid lineup of nine players with the recruitment of Park Hae-min in 2022, Park Dong-won in 2023, and Shin Min-jae's discovery. However, after the Korean Series, the best batting lineup is on the verge of being disbanded.

This is due to the future of Kim Hyun-soo and Park Hae-min, who will become FA.

Park Hae-min's four-year contract of 6 billion won will end this year. Park Hae-min, who has played in the foreground for four years, proved himself to be the best center fielder by turning the outfield of Jamsil Stadium into an iron wall, showing a good defense that prevented numerous run crises.




Although there were ups and downs in hitting, he was the ninth batter this season with a batting average of 276 and three home runs, 43 RBIs, 80 runs and 49 steals. In particular, he led the team to the championship as LG's captain this year and showed leadership.

Kim Hyun-soo signed a 4+2 year contract worth a total of 11.5 billion won. A total of 9 billion won for four years and a contract of 2.5 billion won for an additional two years. This year is the last year of the first four-year contract, and if the option agreed by the player and the club for four years is achieved, the two-year contract will automatically continue, but Kim Hyun-soo will be released as an FA because he failed to achieve the option.

This year's performance is good. He had a batting average of 298, 144 hits, 12 home runs, 90 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.806. Born in January 1988, the age of 38 next year may be a burden, but star players who have experienced major leagues are a model for players with their consistent efforts to show more training than young players, and team priority, which does not hesitate to criticize, is also considered a necessary senior for the team.




Both showed their expanded skills this season, and Park Hae-min is a Grade B player who has to give up one other than 25 protected players, and Kim Hyun-soo is a Grade C player without compensation, which is expected to be a variable that allows him to transfer rather than A.

Since the nine main players are so solid, LG has not had a new main player for three years. There was no right backup to replace them. All-weather infielder Koo Bon-hyuk's improvement in hitting this season was the harvest he earned for three years.

If the two perform well in the Korean Series, the stock price can rise further, and they can receive good offers from teams that need to perform right away in the FA market to be held later. Can LG protect them. LG has to think about winning the championship right away, but has to worry about it after that. LG's general manager Cha Myung-seok said, `Kim Hyun-soo and Park Hae-min are our players,' expressing his intention not to be lost to other teams.
