Yeom Gyeong-yeop, LG coach "Kelly is the first starter, puts into the first game in a symbolic sense"
Kelly, who was caught up in replacement rumors, 'revitalizes'... “If my changeup gets better, I will show my skills.”
LG Twins coach Yeom Gyeong-yeop started to cheer up foreign pitcher Casey Kelly (33), who was once involved in rumors of a replacement, by calling him 카지노사이트“the first starting pitcher.”
Head coach Yeom Gyeong-yeop said, "Because he is the first pitcher," as to why he chose Kelly as the starting pitcher ahead of the first game of the second half against SSG Landers, a professional baseball game to be held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 21st.
Director Yeom added, "Kelly will be able to recover her skills if her changeup improves a little bit."
Manager Yeom said, "I informed Kelly right after the last game of the first half that he would be put into the first game of the second half," and expected that he would "show a different appearance."
Kelly, who has been active as LG's ace since 2019, showed a sluggish appearance with an average ERA of 4.44 with 6 wins and 5 losses in 18 games in the first half of this season.
He seemed to be rebounding with an ERA of 2.73 in five games for a month in May, but he showed ups and downs again after June.
Around this time, rumors spread in the baseball world that LG, which was aiming for a unified championship, would replace Kelly.
In response, coach Yeom Kyung-yeop directly evolved the replacement theory, saying, "Kelly will be with me until the end of the season."
Coach Yeom went one step further and continued his faith by putting Kelly as the starter for the first game of the second half, which was highly symbolic.
On this day, coach Yeom also revealed his goals and prospects for the second half.
Director Yeom said, "The first three consecutive matches in the second half with SSG, which is second place, are important, but it is more important to achieve the monthly win rate target."
Regarding the biggest task in the second half, he said, “Finding the 4th and 5th picks,” and “Kim Yun-sik, Lee Min-ho, and Lee Jung-yong will compete.”
