You have to cover up the jade stone.

LG closed its doors in the FA market. LG, which had drawn the line to recruit outside FA from the beginning, only focused on catching internal FA Kim Hyun-soo and Park Hae-min. He succeeded in signing a four-year contract with captain Park Hae-min for a total of 6.5 billion won, but Kim Hyun-soo, the MVP of the Korean Series, was pushed out of the price competition due to salary cap and eventually had to leave for KT Wiz.




Still, when the FA market opened, both Kim Hyun-soo and Park Hae-min were missing, but they could take a breather by catching Park Hae-min.

For foreign players, Austin Dean, Yonny Chirinos and Anders Tolhurst have all set a policy to renew their contracts, and all three want to sign with LG, so they are expected to be able to renew their contracts without major problems. The Asian quarter player, which will be implemented for the first time next season, also signed Lacran Wells, who played as a substitute for the Kiwoom Heroes this year.

He also organized his team. LG, which was supposed to break up with six players on Oct. 13, including Jeon Joon-ho, Baek Sun-ki, Kim Hyung-wook, Choi Yong-ha, Kang Min, and Park Gun-woo, sent Kim Joo-wan and Kim Young-joon to Lotte in the second draft. Ahn Ik-hoon decided to start a new life as a residual military coach after retiring on the 22nd, and decided not to renew his contract with five players, including Shim Chang-min, Kim Eui-joon, Park Min-ho, Choi Seung-min, and Kim Soo-in on the 25th.

Having solved the big problems, Cha is now looking at the release player market.

Like Kim Jin-sung, other teams have released it, but they are looking for flowers that can bloom again in LG.

Kim Jin-sung was released by NC after the 2021 season, but has been a key bullpen for four years since coming to LG. In this season, he pitched in 286 games in his four years at LG, including 6 wins, 4 losses, 1 save and 33 holds, and posted 20 wins, 11 losses, 6 saves and 93 holds.




Cha said "I'm going to take a look at the players who have been released." However, he recently nailed that he was not interested in Kim Jae-hwan, who was released from Doosan.
