“It comes with fastball.”
LG Twins coach Yeom Gyeong-yeop said of Chan-gyu Lim (31), who is prioritizing among the selection candidates this season ahead of the KT Wiz exhibition game held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 23rd, “I have to prepare for the selection and long relief from the spring camp. I told you, (Lim) Chan-gyu really gritted his teeth and prepared hard,” he said.
Director Yeom estimated the pitching condition by looking at Chan-gyu Lim’s changeup. He said, “The changeup is a big part of making Chan-gyu’s pitching condition feel good.” If you look at each ball count, the swing rate of the batter comes out close to 90% in 0B-2S. From my point of view, it is a pitch that has great value.”
The quality of the pitch also has a large effect on the indicators related to Lim Chan-kyu’s changeup. Director Yeom said, “Chan-gyu’s arm movement is the same when throwing a fastball and a changeup.” “The formation of the pitch tunnel is more important than the angle at which the ball lands. Chan-gyu’s changeup also forms a pitch tunnel, so in the eyes of the batter, it looks like a fastball, so the bat comes out at the timing of the fastball.”
Lim Chan-kyu’s favorable performance also greatly helps Yeom’s strategy plan. Manager Yeom plans to use various pitchers such as Kim Yun-shik, Lee Min-ho, Lim Chan-gyu, Kang Hyo-jong, and rookie Park Myung-geun as starters right away or use them as long relief to prepare them as potential starting candidates. It is a thick enough player base to cope with variables such as major injuries during the season. Moreover, this season, the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games are scheduled to be played without league suspension, so the more resources any team has, the better.
Director Yeom said, “In the end,먹튀검증 we have to prepare for when the selection is not good. At that time, if he has long reliefs that will give him 8 to 10 wins, wouldn’t it be a big help in long races? “I think we have the conditions to do so,” he said. “Above all, the most important thing is whether the players move according to the coach’s thoughts. In order to do that, it is important to plant the awareness that ‘this is enough’ through the experience of success in the demonstration game.”
