A catcher is the core of the center line. That's how important it is. Doosan has a catcher who is considered one of the best in the league. It is Yang Eui-ji (38), the "captain." It is called "half of the team's strength." But it cannot last forever. We need to find the next one. Then, how does Yang see it.토토사이트
Yang Eui-ji, who recently met at Doosan Spring Camp in Sydney, Australia, said, "Our team has produced a lot of good catchers traditionally. We have selected a lot of catchers, but I'm sure there will be as many good catchers as possible."
Doosan is called the "Captor Kingdom" and "Captor Academy." There are many cases where Doosan-born catchers have succeeded in other teams. There are Jin Gap-yong (Samsung), Lee Do-hyung (Hanwha), and Yong Deok-han (Lotte). Recently, Choi Jae-hoon, who was traded to Hanwha in 2017, was also traded to Yang Eui-ji as a free agent (FA) and also led the team to the unified championship in the 2020 season.
If limited to Doosan, it is also true that no catcher is seen after Yang Eui-ji. Whoever it is, it should come out. Four catchers, including Yang Eui-ji, Kim Ki-yeon (28), Park Min-joon (23), and Ryu Hyun-jun (20) participated in the Sydney camp in Australia.
Kim Ki-yeon, a former LG Twins player, wore the Doosan uniform through the second draft after the end of the 2023 season. He had a batting average of 0.278 with five homers and 31 RBIs in 95 games last year. He also showed off his stable defense and long-range hitting ability. He erased Lee Seung-yeop's concern over a backup catcher. On top of this, "young blood" Park Min-joon and Ryu Hyun-joon trained together as successors of the home turf. Who is "Post Yang Eui-ji".
Yang Eui-ji said, "I don't pay special attention to anyone. When I was young, I was a player who didn't stand out. No one would have expected me to grow like this," adding, "He could be a better player than me among young players. The key is to adapt faster to the first team and show his skills. Everyone is "Post Yang Eui-ji" now.
"(Park) Min-joon and (Ryu) Hyun-jun are both young players, but they are really hard at work. They are diligent and fun," he said. "I'm 40 soon, but I enjoy training with my 20-something friends. I'm happy and have fun because I feel like I can see them when I was young." So far, it is the realm of "possibility." It is up to the players to make this reality.
"Post Yang Eui-ji" is not the only thing to look for. Team performance is also important. For the first time in this season, Yang served as the captain. Both teams played in fall baseball for two consecutive years, but both failed in the first round, hurting their pride as the "blind owner of the sleeping room." This year, Yang expressed his strong commitment to win over Korea (限).
"I feel like, 'Our team is getting stronger,' watching young players compete and grow," Yang Eui-ji said. "As a captain, I am helping them do better," he said. "My first goal is to lead the team well and create a season where I can rise to a higher level. I was disappointed last year. I want to finish this year happily."
