The 3-2 big deal carried out by Lotte Giants and Doosan Bears in November last year. Interest in the players' actions is very high from the beginning of the season. Like all trades, it is still too early to calculate.토토사이트

Lotte and Doosan have played three consecutive weekend games since last Friday at Sajik Stadium in Busan. The result was Doosan Bears` dominant series with two wins and one loss. At the third game on Saturday when the team was locked in a 1-1 tie, Lotte allowed its team to suffer a painful upset loss (score 12-15) when its trusted setup man, Jeong Cheol-won, collapsed.

Jung Chul-won took the mound in the top of the seventh inning, when Lotte was ahead by 9-7, two runs, and stopped one inning without losing a point. He was on the verge of first and second base with no outs after giving up consecutive walks to Park Joon-young and Park Gye-beom, but he induced Kim In-tae to play a double play, and allowed Yang Eui-ji to get on base with a fielder's choice, and handled Yang Seok-hwan, the opponent's leading hitter, who had a good batting sense. Lotte also seemed to secure its victory by running three more runs in the attack in the bottom of the seventh inning.

However, Jung Chul-won came down the mound after receiving consecutive hits from leadoff hitter Kang Seung-ho and follow-up Kim Ki-yeon in the top of the eighth inning, and gave up one run after Choo Jae-hyun had a double to left-center. After the changed pitcher Park Joon-woo gave up a walk to Kim Jae-hwan and was on the verge of loading the bases, he allowed Park Gye-beom to chase, and the changed pitcher Park Se-hyun failed to make up for it after allowing Yang Seok-hwan to turn the tables.

Choo Jae-hyun, whose timely hit was made by Jung Cheol-won, was a member of Lotte until last year. These were the players who were used as trading cards in November. However, Choo was a sub-card. Lotte sent Choo Jae-hyun, who was called the "second Lee Jung-hoo" and Kim Min-seok, a second-year outfielder, who was recognized for his batting potential, and right-hander Choi Woo-in, and received Jung Chul-won and infielder Jeon Min-jae. Jung Cheol-won and Kim Min-seok, who were the rookie of the year in the 2021 season, were the main cards.

Jung performed well as a setup man before the game against Doosan Bears. He garnered four holds in seven games he played. With his team leading 6-1 at the top of the ninth inning with one out count remaining, coach Kim Tae-hyung took the mound and accomplished his mission. In addition, Jeon Min-jae was expected to threaten key infielders starting from the spring camp.

Consequently, it was Choo Jae-hyun who led his team's dominant series in the first showdown between Lotte and Doosan in the 2024 season. After foreign hitter Jake Cave was excluded from the entry list due to a cold, he steadily gained the opportunity to start, and led Doosan's offense by making a total of four hits including two doubles and one triple in the third game of the three consecutive Lotte games on Sunday.

Lotte also stood out more than Jung Chul-won, the main card, as Jeon Min-jae, who started all three consecutive games (from the 4th to the 6th), had three hits including two doubles in the first game on the 4th.

Kim Min-seok was not invited to the Big Deal Derby. He had multiple hits as Doosan's leadoff hitter from the opening game, but his batting performance has declined sharply since then. Since his first at-bat against Suwon KT Wiz on March 26, he has had no hit in 15 consecutive times before being excluded from the entry for the first team. "I cannot play in the first team right now," said Lee.

Lotte and Doosan will start their second three-game series at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 25th. Attention is focusing on whether Kim Min-seok will coordinate his batting performance in the Futures League, whether Choo Jae-hyun will continue his current upward trend, whether Jeon Min-jae will take over the current vacant shortstop, or whether Jung Chul-won will overcome his first slump and lead Lotte's waist fight, where even Koo Seung-min is excluded from the first-tier entry.
