The 2023 season is an important year for the ‘Park Brothers’.
Lotte Park Se-woong (28) and KT Park Se-jin (26) are preparing for the new season more diligently than ever.
Park Se-woong signed a multi-year contract with Lotte after last season for a total of 9 billion won over five years. It was the club’s first non-FA (free agent) multi-year contract.
It was a part where you could see Lotte’s expectations for Park Se-woong. Park Se-woong, who joined KT in 2014 and was traded to Lotte in 2015, is active as the team’s native ace. In particular, the 2021-2022 season has accumulated double-digit multipliers for two consecutive years.
Park Se-woong also challenged the Hangzhou Asian Games held in September this year. Giving up on enlisting as Sangmu, he decided to bet everything on the Asian Games. He was also named in the final entry for the World Baseball Classic (WBC) held in March. It is time to show competitiveness on the international stage as well as domestically.
His younger brother Park Se-jin gathered expectations from KT in 2016 when he was nominated for the first round.
However, he has not yet shown any significant performance in the first team. His last appearance in the first team will stay in 2020 and he will only record 1 win, 9 losses and an average ERA of 9.14 in 20 games in his first team career. 바카라
As Park Se-jin, who is now celebrating his 8th year of debut, he has to show something.
His brother made his body in Daegu, his hometown, all winter. And Park Se-woong stayed in Korea instead of leaving for Lotte’s spring camp, Guam. He plans to leave for the United States on the day of the call for the national team after building his body at Sangdong Stadium in Gimhae, where the Futures League is located.
Park Se-jin is training at KT’s spring camp in Tucson, Arizona, USA. The past 3 days he pitched in the bullpen for the first time since joining camp.
His brother will soon meet in America. This is because the place where the WBC team gathers to start training on the 15th is the Tucson Kino Sports Complex, KT’s spring camp site.
Park Se-woong said, “Since my younger brother prepared well for the off-season, I think I should do my best with the thought that it is the last time of the year.”
Looking forward to the day we will meet again in the United States, ‘Hyung’ said, “Since we use the same baseball field, I think I will meet his younger brother. I don’t know yet if the dorm is close, but I think we’ll see each other as we go back and forth.”
