Minseong Kim “A Team with the Ability to Win”
After 14 Years, I Came Back to Lotte... Minseong Kim “A Team with the Ability to Win”
With a sign-and-trade, he returns to his former home 14 years after being traded in 2010, and Lotte is looking forward to becoming a starting second baseman.
“I will burn my teeth and finish as a player.”
Kim Min-seong (35), who was wearing the Lotte Giants uniform again for the first time in 14 years, said, “I feel a heavy sense of responsibility as I return as a senior player with so many years of experience.” E스포츠 게임
Kim Min-seong, who returned to his former team Lotte, is determined for the new season to use this burden as a driving force and repay with exemplary behavior and grades.
Kim Min-seong met with reporters at Incheon International Airport before leaving for Guam, Lotte's spring camp site, on the 31st and said, "I have new feelings because it is a team I joined as a rookie.
Many fans may have been worried, but I have been training personally, so my physical condition is not affected." did.
Kim Min-seong joined Lotte in 2007 and played until 2010, then moved to Nexen (now Kiwoom) Heroes through a trade.
After the 2018 season ended, he wore the LG Twins uniform through a sign-and-trade method, and earned his first championship ring last year by filling in the vacant positions in various positions.
Last winter, he exercised his free agent (FA) status and continued negotiations, signed a 2+1 year contract with LG Twins for up to 900 million won, and then immediately wore a Lotte uniform through 'Sign and Trade', in which he was traded to the team that inherited the terms.
Kim Min-seong said to the LG fans who first gave him a lot of love, "A lot of people were disappointed, but they supported me when I told them I was going back to Lotte, where I started as a player.
“I think Twins fans will also want to see me play baseball for a long time,” he said in his farewell note.
He was offered reasonable contract terms and coaching training by LG as well, but the reason he decided to transfer was because of ‘main player Kim Min-seong’.
Kim Min- seong said, “The biggest reason is that at Lotte, I will be given more opportunities rather than backup.
“I chose it because I thought I could finish with a fire as a player,” he said.
Lotte, whose Ahn Chi-hong left for the Hanwha Eagles in this Stove League, expects Kim Min-seong to be one of the candidates for the starting second baseman.
Kim Min-seong is the second baseman coach Kim Tae-hyung said. After hearing that he wanted me to take over, he immediately replied, "Then I will prepare for second base."
Kim Min-seong, who occasionally played shortstop at LG, said, "Honestly, shortstop is a burden.
“The team will go in a good direction if I don’t play shortstop,” he said, adding, “As the season progresses, problems may arise somewhere, but if I’m needed, I will do a good job accordingly.”
Kim Min-seong also expressed anticipation about playing baseball with Coach Kim.
He said, "This is a manager I would like to meet at least once.
I felt like I wanted to play baseball with him.
I think he would be a good fit for me," and added, "Now that we have met each other like this, I will help the manager a lot."
At LG, Kim Min-seong received more applause for being faithful to his role as a veteran player.
Now, he wants to have a positive influence on Lotte's young players, saying, "Players these days need to show it through actions rather than words.
I am watching behind the scenes how my seniors act."
He added, "If I am sincere wherever I am, the players will also follow me."
“I will trust you,” he said.
Many Lotte fans hope that Kim Min-seong will relieve Lotte's resentment, just as he helped LG win its first championship in 29 years last year.
Kim Min-seong said, “I think that kind of energy is important.
Lotte is definitely a team with the ability to do that.
It is possible.”
While imagining wearing the Lotte uniform again and standing at the plate at Sajik Stadium, he said, “When I was young, the energy of Sajik Stadium was definitely special.
I can still vividly hear the fans’ cheers,” adding, “I’m both nervous and excited, but I can’t wait to say hello to the fans.” I expected it. 카지노사이트
