Oh Seung-hwan (43), the "living legend" of the Samsung Lions, who has 427 saves in his career, is preparing for this season at the Futures Camp.
In the beginning of the first-tier camp, up-and-coming players who need to check their skills will play in practice, and Oh, who is highly experienced, is building up to his pace. He will join the first-tier camp from July 20. 바카라사이트
Oh Seung-hwan, who met at Ishikawa Stadium in Okinawa, Japan on the 18th, said, "I'm preparing hard, no different from previous years."
When I told him, "I feel my jawline has recovered," he said, "I've never weighed myself here before, but I feel like I've lost some weight. I didn't control it on purpose. I used to eat well, but I think I lost weight."
Oh is serving as a walking textbook for young players who are participating in the Futures Camp. Choi Il-eon, head coach of the Futures team, said, "Just seeing how veteran players do can be of great help to young players."
According to Choi Il-eon, young pitchers flock to the team whenever veteran pitchers such as Oh Seung-hwan and Lim Chang-min start pitching in the bullpen. Rumors have it that they are constantly admiring their pitches.
"It must feel different from what you see on TV. It feels real to see the ball coming in. It's a great opportunity to see veteran pitchers throwing in person. It helps a lot in terms of visuals as well," Choi said.
Oh Seung-hwan said, "I don't talk to my juniors first because I'm afraid they'll feel uncomfortable. I tend to watch it when I throw a bullpen session, but I need to focus more. Even if I don't approach them first and give them advice, every action is important. It gives me good motivation, too. Even if my juniors ask me for advice, I just talk about each other's thoughts," he said.
In baseball, the player who has to do it should do it. The same goes for Oh. "The most important thing is for our team to win as much as possible. Individual performance is meaningless. He showed extreme opposition last year, and it was his worst season since joining Samsung, and I want to make up for it myself. It's not that you can do well, but you have to do well no matter what."
Samsung's junior players were deeply disappointed not to join Oh in the fall. "Of course, I have to be with him. It's up to me. That's what I'm doing. I'm doing my best. (I was excluded from the postseason entry last year) is solely my fault. I need to be with my junior teammates," Oh said.
How did he feel when the possibility was raised that he could transfer to the FA compensation team? "I didn't have any other thoughts. It's not something I can make up my mind. There is no reason to feel bad about it. From a different perspective, he is competitive at all. I don't feel any hurt at all," Oh said.
Oh is most likely to be the first permanent member of the team. "Of course, I haven't thought about it, but for now, I just want to focus on this season. I don't have to think about anything else," he stressed. Oh's strong commitment to recovering his reputation was revealed.
He added, "It's not strange to retire right now. I just want to focus on this season without thinking about anything else. During the first camp in Guam, my boss and my coach told me a lot of good things. Those kind words to set the direction like this have allowed me to focus on this season with ease. There is only one answer. All I have to do is do well."
