“It exceeded my expectations. I was very satisfied”.
The Samsung Futures team held a spring camp at Ishikawa Stadium in Okinawa, Japan for 25 days from January 31st. Kim Jae-geol, head coach of the Samsung Lions Futures, said this while looking back at the camp in Okinawa, Japan.
Head coach Kim Jae-gul, who we met at the Gyeongsan Ball Park on the 27th of last month, said, “The camp ended well thanks to the hard work of the coaching staff and players.
When asked who stood out to coach Kim Jae-geol, he replied, “I was able to finish the camp well thanks to everyone who worked so hard and followed me well.”
He also said, “It is important to finish the camp well without injury. I don’t think there are any injured players because each player has a goal and enjoys it, rather than being forced to exercise.”
Creating an atmosphere where you can train on your own without anyone telling you is the biggest gain. Coach Kim Jae-geol picked Kim Heon-gon, Kim Dong-yeop, and Lee Seong-gyu (above outfielders) as the MVPs of the camp and praised them, saying, “They led the atmosphere well at the beginning of the camp. I think they set a good example for players who have just entered the professional stage.”
There is a lot of praise for right-hander Lee Ho-seong in the first round. Manager Kim Jae-gul said, “Both his skills and attitude to training are excellent. He not only throws the ball well, but also has solid basic defense skills.” 메이저놀이터
In addition to improving his skills, he emphasized the attitude that a baseball player should have. Director Kim Jae-geol raised his voice, saying, “At a young age, you have to properly learn about the mindset you should have as a baseball player and the manners you need to keep with your colleagues.”
From now on, it’s in practice mode. It is a great opportunity for players to show off their hard-honed skills.
Director Kim Jae-gul said, “We just need to show it on the ground as we prepared at the camp. Even if we don’t get results right away, don’t be discouraged and I hope this will be an opportunity to work harder.”
