The Doosan Bears are close to signing FA shortstop Park Chan-ho. However, he has not yet obtained the seal.

Doosan crossed the nine-fault line before recruiting Park Chan-ho on the 13th. Doosan, which felt serious about its ninth-place fall this season, judged that it is essential to strengthen its power. He kept an eye on shortstop Park Chan-ho, who is in a weak position. The CEO and the general manager returned home on the 12th after an encouraging visit to Japan's finishing camp. From this point on, it took off.

Doosan presented the maximum value to the extent that it could be evaluated as a `reasonable amount.' As rival clubs gave up somewhat easily, there was no unconventional money fight.




Doosan and Park Chan-ho generally agreed on the contract period and total size.

Of course, the final stage 'sign' is left, so of course it is not confirmed.

There are three main reasons why 'Official' did not appear.




First, we agreed on the total amount, but we need to organize the details. The down payment, guaranteed amount, and options must be adjusted.

Although the possibility is slim, 'hyzacking' cannot be ruled out. Other clubs can suddenly participate in the war, or existing competing clubs can change their minds and grow the game.

Finally, administrative procedures also take time. Coincidentally, the K-Baseball series will be held at Tokyo Dome in Japan on the 15th and 16th. The team's leadership is on a business trip to Japan over the weekend, making it difficult to approve.




Anyway, Doosan is expected to open the 2026 FA market and become the star of the stove league this winter.

Doosan has traditionally been stingy with outside FA transfusions. The last pure external FA hired by Doosan was Jang Won-jun, 11 years ago.

The ninth-place fall came as a shock. Doosan, which was advocating 'Hwapun', eventually turned its attention to the outside world. The opinions of the front office and the group leaders were also in agreement.

Recruiting one or two FA will not immediately make them the favorite, but the rebuilding period can be minimized.

Doosan's wide-ranging move will not stop there. The next target has already been targeted.
