Hanwha Noh Si-hwan is the leading fielder in the KBO League MVP race this season. Noh Si-hwan hit his 27th home run of the season against the Doosan Bears in Daejeon on the 12th, beating Choi Jung (SSG, 21) who is second in the category by six. Noh Si-hwan is also at the top of the division with 75 RBIs this season, and he is the most notable hitter this season, recording the No. 1 OPS (0.970), a reference indicator.메이저사이트
The most dramatic choice among all-time professional baseball drafts was Hanwha’s designation of Ryu Hyun-jin (Toronto) in the 2006 season. At that time, SK in the Incheon region will choose catcher Lee Jae-won from Incheon High School in the first nomination. Ryu Hyun-jin, who was attending Dongsan High School, considered anxiety factors, such as having a history of elbow ligament surgery. With Ryu Hyun-jin coming to the second nomination, Lotte, which had the right to nominate No. 1 in the second round, called Na Seung-hyun, a sidearm of Gwangju Ilgo, which was classified as an ultra-high school level immediate power. It was the background that Hanwha, the next in line, was able to recruit Ryu Hyun-jin.
As a Hanwha player, Roh Si-hwan, who had a chance to become the MVP for the first time in 17 years since Ryu Hyun-jin in the 2006 season, also wore a Hanwha uniform in the 2019 season rookie draft.
Lotte, which had the right to nominate Noh Si-hwan for the first time, who was a senior at Kyungnam High School in 2018, chose Seo Joon-won, his fellow pitcher at Kyungnam High School. With Noh Si-hwan, the “future big gun,” being the subject of the second nomination, it was a “return overseas issue” that once again determined Roh’s fate that year. In the draft that year, interest in returning overseas players such as Lee Dae-eun, Lee Hak-joo, and Ha Jae-hoon was very high, and it seemed natural that Lee Dae-eun, who also played as an ace of the Korean national team at WBC in 2017, would be selected as the first. As expected, while KT, which has the second nomination right, chose Lee Dae-eun, Samsung, which had the second nomination right as ninth in the 2017 season, recruited Lee Hak-joo, who proved his ability to offense and defense as a shortstop in Triple-A in the US professional baseball league. Hanwha, who is next in line, nominated Roh Si-hwan.
At that time, Hanwha was rumored to have put Noh Si-hwan on the list of “Kim Tae-kyun’s successor” and even held a smokescreen. Han Yong-deok, then Hanwha’s head coach, and a key official of the club made an unusual appearance at the tryout held at Suwon Stadium amid the participation of returning overseas players, acting as if they were interested in overseas players. Hanwha, which was worried that the top teams would skip the returning overseas players and choose Noh Si-hwan, exercised its right to nominate for the second first round as it wanted
When the light is bright, attention is bound to be paid to the starting point of the light. The choice at that time is seeing the light properly light this season.
At that time, Hanwha had internal conflicts due to the promotion of a generational change at the club level. However, it was definitely lucky for Noh Si-hwan, a pure rookie. Rookie Noh Si-hwan had a chance of 192 at-bats in 91 games despite sluggish batting average of 0.186 in his first year of joining the team and defensive instability. The next head coach I met was also Carlos Subero of “Fostering Major,” and Noh Si-hwan was able to secure a stable stage on an extension.
As a big gun, Roh Si-hwan is expected to break through 30 home runs and 100 RBIs, which is a perfect standard for success, this season. Hanwha is already a big asset. In addition, Roh Si-hwan, who was born in 2000, started running as a leader of the next generation of big gun groups that will succeed basic big gun domestic groups such as Choi Jung, born in 1987, and Kim Jae-hwan ( Doosan), born in 1988. A “big name” is growing in Korean baseball as a whole.
