KIA’s Byun Woo-hyuk, Samsung’s Kim Dong-yup and 4 others registered for the first team…Lotte’s Koo Seung-min and 7 others expelled
Jamsil SSG-LG and 4 other games canceled due to rain
Moon Dae-hyun Reporter = The KIA Tigers have made a change to their roster.
On the 16th, the Tigers made a roster move to add infielder Byun Woo-hyuk to the roster. In his place, they designated pitcher Kim Jae-yeol.
Byun, who joined KIA from the Hanwha Eagles ahead of the season, has shown one-hit power and decent defense, but his offense has been up and down and he hasn’t been able to instill much confidence in the bench.
After batting .235 (36-for-153) with six home runs and 21 RBIs in 60 games this season, he was sent down to the second team, only to be recalled to the first team exactly ten days later.
The Lotte Giants also called up pitcher Lee Jin-ha and infielder Bae Young-bin, while pitchers Koo Seung-min and Kim Kang-hyun were sent to the second team.
Koo Seung-min, who has been a dominant pitcher all season but has struggled a bit recently, will get a chance to recharge his batteries in the second team.
Elsewhere, the Samsung Lions designated pitcher Choi Ha-neul and outfielders Kim Tae-hoon and Kim Heon-gon for assignment instead of registering one-hit outfielder Kim Dong-yeop.메이저사이트

Meanwhile, the Gwangju Doosan Bears-KIA Tigers, Daejeon KT Wiz-Hanwha Eagles, Sajik Kiwoom Heroes-Lotte Giants, and Changwon Samsung Lions-NC Dinos were all canceled due to rain in the southern region of the country.
The remaining games announced by the KBO are Gwangju Doosan-KIA and Daejeon KT-Hanwha, which will be played on April 18.
Sajik Kiwoom-Lotte will be played on the 19th. The Changwon Samsung-NC game will be organized at a later date.
