Kang Baek-ho (24‧kt) could not finalize salary negotiations for 2023 until other players departed for spring camp. He acknowledged that he was subject to cuts, but there were disagreements over the extent of the cuts.

In the end, he stamped on 290 million won, a whopping 47.3% cut from his 2022 annual salary (550 million won), and hurriedly followed his colleagues. There is only one thing that means that the salary has been reduced like this. He suggested that his performance in 2022 was poor. In fact, Kang Baek-ho only played 62 games last year due to several injuries, and had a batting average of 0.245, 6 homers, 29 RBIs, and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.683. Since the basic annual salary is high, his reduction had to be even greater.

Everyone thinks that this genius hitter has been through one trial and his rise has been crushed. However, Kang Baek-ho emphasizes that this is not necessarily the case. Kang Baek-ho said, “I don’t think it was broken. I don’t think there were any technical problems.” I just need to prepare better and do well this year. I am always grateful for the next opportunity.” 토토사이트

Kang Baek-ho said, “I did a lot of video feedback and data feedback.” It is judged that there was no major problem in the technical part. The body was also a problem. He injured both his foot and hamstring. The lower body was not held properly throughout the season. Kang Baek-ho is a hitter whose stepping foot is very important. Gather your strength and balance your blows with this move. However, as his lower body could not hold up, he could not push his contact point to the end, which led to frequent fouls and sometimes miss swings.

So Kang Baek-ho is preparing for the season with the confidence that he will be able to get back on track this year, when his physical condition does not have any problems. He gets caught in the wind once, but doesn’t break and is staring straight ahead. Without being psychologically anxious or chased, the boldness that made Kang Baek-ho today continued. He also said that he was not very conscious of his performance last year or kept it in mind. He could hear a more mature voice.

Kang Baek-ho said, “Even when I started the season, I thought that there would of course be seasons I couldn’t do. Then, rather than spending a season where I was dissatisfied when I failed, I think it’s okay if it’s a season where I can feel satisfied and feel that ‘this was okay’. He smiled, saying, “I’m accepting it well enough, and I just have to fill in the missing parts again. So, I’m looking forward to this season very much. I think the process I will prepare for in the future will be exciting and fun.”

I put a lot of effort since the offseason to fill that process to the fullest. Kang Baek-ho said, “The results of the camp are good enough to make me think that I have prepared very well for the off-season. I am still very satisfied with the process of preparing hard at camp,” he said. I will try my best to show you a lot.” Kang Baek-ho, like Kang Baek-ho, was looking forward to the upcoming season.
