The Lotte Giants collected a large number of players released after last season. These have become the driving force behind Lotte’s early rise. Ahn Kwon-soo, Kim Sang-soo, Shin Jeong-rak, and Yoon Myeong-jun have become indispensable to the team as they have been active in their respective positions. And another release-born Shinhwa is preparing. Hyun Do-hoon (30), a former Paju Challengers player who was released from Doosan last year, is the main character.

Paju Challengers,메이저사이트 an independent baseball team, is now a place of hope for players challenging the KBO league. The desperateness of the end made them fall in love with baseball again and produced more than 10 professional players, and Hyun Do-hoon is one of them.

Hyun Do-hun, who graduated from Kyoto Kokusai High School in Japan and Kyushu Kyoritsu University in Japan through Shiniljung, continued his hopes of advancing to the KBO League at Paju Challengers, and signed a contract with Doosan to foster players ahead of the 2018 season. In the first team in 2018, he had an average earned run average of 7.27 (7 earned runs in 8⅔ innings) in 3 games, 1 loss, 11 hits (2 homers), 6 walks, 1 walk, and 5 strikeouts. 

Afterwards, Hyun Do-hoon was released and the military service issue was resolved. Afterwards, he rejoined Doosan and disappeared after throwing 5 games in 2021 in the first team. He watched a lot of potential at Doosan, but was unable to fully realize his potential. And last year, due to an injury, he could not play a game in the 1st and 2nd divisions and was released. However, Hyun Do-hoon did not give up his dream of active service, and after being tested at Lotte, he ended up wearing a Lotte uniform after twists and turns. 

A career with many ups and downs continued, but so far at Lotte, it is hopeful. Excluding the existing 1st team players, it is the most noticeable figure among the players who need to receive a chance in the 2nd team. It is rumored that as the velocity in the early 140km range increased to the latter half of 140km, more power was gained at the end of the ball. The rise in pitch is manifested sexually. Currently, he pitches in 6 games in the Futures League and has an average ERA of 1.50 (1 earned run in 6 innings) with 1 win, 1 save and 1 hold, leaving 4 strikeouts and 4 walks. 

Although he is a foster player, he is in a situation where he can get a chance even in the first team. Since he is in May, there are no restrictions on a formal player contract. Hyun Do-hoon is not expected to be the number one bullpen call-up right away. Pitchers who will be called up from the first team immediately include Kim Do-gyu, who must maintain a steady speed, and Lee Tae-yeon, a rookie left-hander. However, the more pitchers, the better, for Lotte, which continues to rank high in the bullpen despite the sluggish starters. 

There is no guarantee that the performance in the 2nd group will be carried over to the 1st group, but just having one more option to spread the ball in the mid to late 140km can be a great help. In addition, Kim Sang-soo, Yoon Myeong-jun, and Shin Jeong-rak, who were in the same situation as Hyun Do-hoon, are giving strength to the pitching staff. It can also act as a motivating factor. 

Will Hyun Do-hoon be able to remain as another player who continues the legend of Lotte’s birthplace?
