Shortstop Kim Joo-won (23) of the NC Dinos is a switch heater. However, he started the game a little later than others. Many say that he is more stable in the right-handed lineup. Still, Kim has no intention of giving up his productivity in the left-handed lineup. He met three coaches after his debut, but none of them failed to discourage Kim from playing as a switch heater.바카라

In fact, there is a view within the club that Kim Joo-won can increase productivity if he focuses only on the right-handed seats. There is a widespread belief that he can play 20-20 at 30% one day due to his good athletic ability and outstanding batting talent. The fact that the former coach closed his eyes and used Kim Joo-won as the ninth hitter for two years is expected to be reevaluated in the future.

In any case, Kim does not give up on being a shortstop for a switch-hitter. He showed strong performance in 57 games in the second half of last year with a batting average of 0.320, four homers and 21 RBIs, and was assessed to have established his batting average to some extent. Manager Lee Ho-joon said, "As the height of Kim's foot lifting and the turn movement of his lower body have decreased overall, the accuracy has improved."

Kim is maintaining the direction of the latter half of last year in this year's spring camp as well. "I don't think about home runs at all right now. I only try to hit hard," Kim said at the Tainan Asia-Pacific International Baseball Training Center in Taiwan on Monday (Korea time). Son Ah-seop also said, "After getting hit, we can't do anything, so we just have to do our best until we get hit." He modified the swing to be compact, but focused on producing strong hits. Then, he could have a home run.

He has made it clear once again that he has no intention of giving up the switch-hitter. "I don't really want to do just one thing. Switch-hitter will continue to do it. The training routine itself is longer than others' batting training. Instead, the group training hours are fixed, so we divide the training sessions between the two at-bats. After all, he has to train both at-bats, and he is spending more than twice as much time as others. He is a great passion.

Kim Joo-won said, "I think I can improve my grades if I hit it right, but I think that will eliminate copyright. But doing both has merit." What if his idol Francisco Lindor (New York Mets) gives up the switch heater? Then Kim Joo-won momentarily replaced the answer with laughter.

Kim Ju-won studies many sluggers in the Major League including Lindor. "Lindor has a big swing arc. He also refers to things that set timing and get into rhythm a lot," Kim said. That doesn't mean he wants to be Lindor. He only refers to Lindor and looks at the first Kim Ju-won, not the second Lindor.

This year, Kim will be upgraded to the second batter out of the ninth batter. Lee Ho-joon plans to push Kim as the second batter. "I also briefly played as the second hitter in the second half of last year. I think I need to focus on how to fight the pitcher well and getting on base. I think it would be good if I take the batter's box more often."
