KIA Tigers' right-hander Hong Won-bin (25) has a chance to make his debut. He has displayed impressive performance as a closing pitcher for the Futures for the first time in seven years since his debut. Starting in May, players with Yook Sung's status can be registered as full-time players. Manager Lee Bum-ho started paying attention by mentioning his name himself.온라인바카라
Lee said, "Front and Field are talking. We need to post a good player among the players with nurturing status. There are not many seats available. We are thinking of changing two or three players." Lee's intention was to give the players with nurturing status who are good at it a chance along with registration as official players.
He also mentioned Hong Won-bin's name. "I was reported that he throws the best right now. He is said to pitch well in the game. I heard that there are some good hitters as well. I will talk to him because the Futures coaching staff has been watching."
Hong Won-bin has been playing as a closing player in the Futures League since this year. He has 3 wins, 1 loss, 5 saves and a 2.63 ERA in 14 games. On the 26th, he made a two-run save against Lotte, destroying the ERA in the one-point range.
He displayed potential as the closing pitcher by banking on his fastball up to 154 kilometers, commitment and sharp slider. Control of ball is still gaining popularity. He allowed 11 walks and four pitches in 13 ⅔ innings. He has 12 strikeouts and a hit-out rate of 140.
He has definitely made progress compared to previous years. In recognition of his potential, he was drafted in the first round of the 2019 Rookie Draft, but failed to make his first-team debut due to a ball control issue. With runners, he tended to get more shaky. With hard work, he has now begun to establish a framework for pitchers enough to earn the finishing position in the second division.
Lee observed Hong's potential in person at exhibition games with the Okinawa camp. He also promised that if he pursues more procedures in the second division, he will be given a chance to make his debut in the first division. However, it is still unclear whether he will be given a chance to play in the first division right away in May. The first division is engaged in fierce competition to secure a rebound.
The first-team bullpen, which was shaken in the early days of the season, has regained its power. The must-win team is firmly playing its part until Choi Ji-min, Jeon Sang-hyun, Jo Sang-woo, and Jung Hae-young. In order to create a space where Hong Won-bin can add strength, he needs to have an untouchable evaluation in the second division. Nevertheless, the possibility of making a debut in the first division itself makes Hong happy.
