Even if it's fluttering, my heart will beat and dopamine will spring up. Lotte Giants' young guns from Sangdong, where the second division stays, properly participated in the "Arrest Revolution."메이저놀이터
It is now common to see pitchers throwing 150 kilometers. Based on the biomarker system, researchers started researching pitching form that can maximize the speed of pitches, and digesting such training programs, pitchers' speed of pitches have accelerated their speed of pitches. Even though only spraying around mid-140 kilometers was called fastball, pitchers are no longer able to present their business cards.
Lotte was somewhat behind in this revolution of confinement. Some pitchers were throwing 150 kilometers, but they were just like dips, not consistent. It barely managed to hit the 150-kilometer mark. Fire bowlers who constantly spray 150 kilometers are appearing everywhere, however. Things that make Lotte fans burst dopamine are happening over and over again. What they have in common are young players who stayed in Lotte's second tier and Sangdong.
One example is Lee Min-seok, 22, who immediately started as a substitute for the first team and is continuing his promising pitching career. He was right to be a fastball prospect who will speed up to 150 kilometers as the first player to be designated in 2022. However, he left a regret in his control and operational capabilities. Moreover, if the gap between tempo and pattern is slightly different, the team could not properly accumulate experience in growth. However, he has displayed himself in the first team by throwing 150 kilometers of balls to control the ball and run the game.
He became the losing pitcher at the match against SSG on Saturday, but was praised by manager Kim Tae-hyung even though he allowed seven hits (one homer) and two walks, six strikeouts and six runs in five innings. He displayed his best pitching by allowing five hits, two walks and one strikeout and one run in six innings against KT on Sunday. He constantly threw pitches ranging from up to 155 kilometers in maximum to 150 kilometers in average. Although he was disappointed by allowing five hits (one homer) and three strikeouts and four runs in four ⅓ in the second game of the doubleheader against Samsung on Sunday, it is too early to achieve hope. On the day, Lee Min-seok was given fastballs with a maximum speed of 154 kilometers and an average speed of 150 kilometers.
Choi Jun-yong (24), a bullpen pitcher who took the mound in the second game of a doubleheader against Samsung on Thursday and returned to the top team in 349 days after undergoing surgery on his shoulder, also recovered his speed to 150 kilometers. After removing the source of pain that had plagued him for about three years, he recovered his fastball. He threw faster balls than before. He pitched in the sixth inning on the day, allowing no run and one strikeout. After throwing a 148-km fastball to leadoff hitter Kim Jae-sung, his five fastballs flew over 150km in total. He posted maximum speed of 153km and average speed of 151km.
What is most surprising is that promising pitchers who have been considered other than players' capacity are now throwing fastballs in the first division. Notably, Yoon Seong-bin (26), the first designated pitcher in 2017, Lotte's "painful finger," is preparing to play in the first division by throwing fastballs. In recent matches for starting pitchers in the second division, he displayed a strikeout parade by throwing balls in the mid-150km range. He struck out 40 times in 21 ⅓ innings and struck out a whopping 16.9 per 9 innings. He also had 19 walks and eight walks per 9 innings, but his numbers are getting better. Despite the recent slowdown due to waist injury, he displayed perfect pitching with six strikeouts and no runs in 3 innings in a match against KT on Wednesday. He recorded the maximum 156km and average 154km on the day. Now, Yoon is preparing for a temporary starting position in the first division. He has yet to register for the first division, but he also appeared in the dugout on Wednesday.
Hong Min-ki (24), the left-hander of the second round of 2020 is as surprising as Yoon Sung-bin. He has recorded one win and two losses with an earned run average of 12.66 (15 earned runs in 10 ⅔ innings) in six games this year. However, he has four earned runs in seven ⅓ innings, excluding 13 earned runs (11 earned runs) in three ⅓ innings against KT on March 14 in his first game in the second 군.
He was pitching in the second division as a bullpen pitcher, and came up to the first division as a special entry for a doubleheader on Wednesday. However, he surprised everyone by throwing fastballs with speeds of up to 153 kilometers and an average of 151 kilometers in a row in the sixth inning when he was trailing 0-5. Although he was a left-handed fireballer, he seemed to have gained speed in his pitches. The result was good, too. He couldn't get help from defense, and was on the verge of hitting the first and third bases with no outs, and controlling fastballs was not good, but he overpowered the team by misleading the opponent with slider in one inning. In the end, when Hong was trailing 0-5, he overcame the 7-5 reversal by allowing no runs.
Players from the second-tier Sangdong are throwing fastballs that make fans' hearts flutter. Some say that Kim Sang-jin, who is newly appointed to the second-tier Futures League this year, is already showing off his effect. Since his days with Doosan, he has been spotlighted as a pitching trainer who soft-landed Jeong Cheol-won, Choi Ji-gang and Lee Byung-hun in the first division. Above all, he paid attention to the capabilities that transformed them all into fireballs. Lotte is already paying off. Besides these young pitchers, veterans Park Jin-hyung and Park Si-young also made a brief appearance in the first division as they regained balance and speed thanks to coach Kim Sang-jin.
It can also be interpreted that the Lim Kyung-wan-Kim Hyun-wook coaching system is working well in the remaining teams with rehabilitation players. Hong Min-ki and Choi Jun-yong were all players who were not free from injury. "Coach Kim Sang-jin was good, but coach Lim Kyung-wan and Kim Hyun-wook took good care of them in the remaining teams," Choi said. "Coach Kim Hyun-wook said, 'Before the surgery, there were some movements that distracted my strength, but now I think it looks comfortable. I really improved the section where I use my strength. I think I just need to be painless," he said. "I think I can throw a better ball if I take good care of myself and exercise well to strengthen my body."
In any case, it is a good thing that Lotte has more fastball pitchers right away. It also fits the style of manager Kim Tae-hyung, who prefers fastball pitchers. The current arrest revolution in the upper reaches of the second division is welcome. First of all, he saw hope and made dopamine burst. Now they just need to make a proper soft landing in the first team.
