Confidence in “light body” → sudden injury… SSG, is there another ‘trump card’
“My body became lighter.”
This is what SSG veteran Kim Kang-min (41) said with confidence. But then the injury came. He lost the ‘trump card’ for SSG. need someone else
Kim Kang-min has a batting average of 0.367, 2 homers, 3 RBIs, 7 runs, an on-base percentage of 0.459, a slugging percentage of 0.567, and an OPS of 1.026 in 15 games this season.
It did not fill the statute of limitations. The sample itself is small because it is 37 plate appearances. However, if you go out, good performance comes out. He is the ‘super class joker’ in the SSG team.
In the match against KIA in Gwangju on the 10th, he went in as a substitute and scored 2 hits. His second hit was a home run. I fired a cannon shot like gold, running away from 4-3 to 5-3.

In the match against KIA on the 11th, he had 1 hit and 1 run. However, in this game, I suffered a sore in my calf. During a base run, he damaged his calf muscle. Eventually, on the 12th, he was eliminated from District 1.
He had been expunged once on April 28 due to a bad back. He returned on the 9th. I was away again after three days. Kim Kang-min is also bitter, and SSG is also regrettable.
After hitting a home run on the 10th, “Actually, when my back hurt, it was really hard. I even thought about his retirement. He had a lot on his mind. now my body is light he just got better. He seems to have had a good rest,” he laughed.
And on the 11th, he started as a starter, but suffered a calf injury. Director Kim Won-hyeong laughed and said, “Kim Kang-min is basically old,” and then said, “It’s not a big damage. He’ll probably have to see it for about three weeks,” he explained.
Based on the 11th, 3 weeks is June 1st. It means that there is a high possibility that we will not be able to see it again in May. SSG lost the best Joker in the team. Kim Kang-min also said, “It seems that the director and coaches are trying to use it when it is important. He kept delaying it,” he laughed. I wrote Kim Kang-min when it was so decisive, and Kim Kang-min also responded.

At least Choi Ji-hoon came back from injury, so the damage can be minimized. Choi Ji-hoon started on the 13th and led the team to victory with 2 hits, 2 RBIs and 1 run. On the 14th, he started in Gyeonggi-do.
Even if Choi Ji-hoon is the starting pitcher, he needs to find a card to support him. First of all, Lee Jung-beom showed a good appearance. On the 13th, against Hanwha, he recorded 1 hit, 1 RBI, 1 run and 1 walk.
Manager Kim Won-hyung said, “We have a set starting position in the outfield. A backup is necessary. Lee Jung-beom did a good job. He comes up during the season every time and gets to play, and he’s doing well. He explains that he plays the role of energizer when it is difficult.”
“Last year was like that, and this year is like that too. Even for a moment, if these backups come up and do well, it will be helpful. thanks. I hope he continues to do well,” he added.
No team can play all 144 games. Reinforcements are essential. Kim Kang-min played an outstanding role as the main backup. The three weeks without Kim Kang-min are important. Whoever comes out has to come out.메이저놀이터
