There is no Koo Chang-mo (26), and no Park Min-woo (30, NC).
The core of pitching in pro baseball NC has deviated. It all started with Guchangmo. On the 2nd, he started against LG in Jamsil, but at the end of the first inning, he threw only 5 pitches and suddenly called the coaching staff. In the end, he was judged not to be able to pitch, and the next day, on the 3rd, he was expunged from the first team and disappeared.
It is a damage to the forearm flexor muscle of his left arm. Of his long stretched flexors, he avoided the worst because they were near his wrists, not his elbows. Nevertheless, about 3 weeks of departure is inevitable. NC has to endure the time without Gu Chang-mo once again.스포츠토토
On the 20th of last month, he had already left the first team due to accumulated fatigue in his left shoulder and elbow. After that, it took a little longer than planned, but it was not too late, and on the 2nd, he made his first comeback in 16 days. This is the mindset of NC, which tried to prevent his injury through management that took enough time. However, NC’s efforts with so much effort were in vain.
The bad meaning of the baton went to Park Min-woo. He was not included in the starting lineup for the match against Jamsil on the 2nd. NC coach Kang In-kwon explained that it is not easy to defend or hit due to right shoulder pain, so only large runners can do it.
However, there was no major runner input, and Park Min-woo skipped the game on the following 3 days. And on the last 4 days before the final game 3 of the series, he was eventually expunged. Director Kang said, “It is a symptom of a right shoulder sprain. I tried to watch him for a few days, but there was no improvement than I thought, so I decided it was better to give him a break.”
All of them are faces that symbolize NC. In 2015, Chang-mo Gu, who wore an NC uniform in the 3rd place in the 2nd round of the 1st round, grew up quickly and headed towards the ‘local ace’ representing the league. The performance with an average ERA of 1.55 in the first half of 2020 is still strong. Park Min-woo, who was nominated in the 9th place in the 1st round in 2012, is a founding member of the ‘9th team’ NC and one of the few franchise stars.
The team knows its value better than anyone else. This is the background of the bold investment made in the two last winter. NC showed respect for the one-club man by giving Park Min-woo, who was in the FA (free agent) market, a large contract for 5+3 years, with a total value of 14 billion won in November of last year. In December that followed, Gu Chang-mo, who had time left until FA acquisition, was tied up in a multi-year contract worth 13.2 billion won for up to 6+1 years.
In Stove League, NC, who was unable to crack down on domestic rabbits such as Won Jong-hyun, Yang Eui-ji, and Noh Jin-hyuk, and was crying, was a key resource that was no different than betting everything. However, for the time being, NC has encountered an unsolvable task of enduring a ‘world without them’.
