Only three of the "Yoon Go Na-hwang" players were left, and the infield "0th place in backup" also disappeared from the Lotte Giants' first-team entry, with the "8 billion catcher" Yoo Kang-nam's second-tier team.온라인카지노

Lotte eliminated two players from its entry list for the main league team on Wednesday. Infielder Lee Ho-joon and outfielder Kim Dong-hyun. Kim Dong-hyun, who was drafted by Lotte in the sixth round of the 2025 Rookie Draft, were recently called by the first team, but failed to get a chance to play and moved back to the second team. The noticeable news is Lee Ho-joon.

Lee Ho-joon was selected by Lotte as the 23rd overall pick in the third round of the 2024 draft. Since he was called up to the first team in July last year, he has accumulated experience by playing in 12 games. This year, he has been with the first team since the beginning of the season, recording 16 hits, nine RBIs, 12 runs and a batting average of 0.235 OPS of 0.726 in 53 games, and has continued to have impact by gaining opportunities as a starter when there is a hole in the infield.

However, he recently suffered an injury during the course of the match. He felt uncomfortable with the third finger on his right hand, and moved to the second team to manage players. It is certainly fatal that Lee Ho-joon, who has a clear strength of defense, has been excluded at a time when a large number of key players have left Lotte, including his good performances as a backup.

Lotte has suffered from a flurry of injuries over the past few years. It created a sensation from 2022-2023, which made it to the top of the list at the beginning of the season, but failed to defend the postseason as its main players started to leave one by one. This was the same last year. Even before the season began, main players such as Han Dong-hee (currently Sangmu) and Kim Min-seok (currently Doosan Bears) were out of the lineup.

However, this year is a similar trend. Lotte bottomed out once at the beginning of the season, but later began to raise its ranking little by little, competing with LG Twins and Hanwha Eagles. It recently set the stage for a rebound by recording a winning series (2-1) against the Doosan Bears, but previously, Lotte briefly fell to a joint fourth place as it recorded four consecutive games of looting.

In the background, there were not a few aftermaths of injuries to the main players. Hwang Sung-bin was injured during the sliding process and was put on the operating table, while Na Seung-yeop was down to the second team in a reorganization amid poor batting, and was hit in the eye during defensive training. And Yoon Dong-hee felt thigh pain during the game on the 5th, and was diagnosed with partial damage to the left front thigh muscle after a hospital examination.

Na Seung-yeop, who has not found any major problems in the examination, will return to the ground as soon as possible, but Hwang Sung-bin and Yoon Dong-hee are difficult to return to the ground in the first half. In addition, before the game on the 8th, he went down to the second division to reorganize catcher Yoo Kang-nam, and with one player and one player disappointed, even Lee Ho-joon, who has been showing growth in the infield, will have a break of at least 10 days.

Through the three consecutive games against Doosan, it has regained its sole position three behind, but it is still not at ease. Lotte will hold a six-game series against KT Wiz-SSG Landers from the 10th, which is currently only one game away from KT and 1.5 games away from SSG, which means it will play the most important six-game series with its weakest power since the start of the 2025 season.

Of course, this can be an opportunity for players who have not received many opportunities. Captain Jeon Jun-woo said in an interview with reporters after the game on the 7th, "It's so unfortunate that the injured players are coming out. However, on the other hand, I think it's an opportunity for the players who are playing," and expressed his hope, "I hope the players will unite and do well." If they don't have teeth, what results will Lotte leave this week when they have to endure with their gums.
