LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop mentioned pitcher Son Joo-young ahead of the final showdown between the Doosan Bears and the team in the "2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League" at Jamsil Stadium on the 22nd.먹튀검증

Son started in two doubleheader games a day earlier on Sunday. He pitched seven innings, four hits, nine strikeouts and one walk, leading his team to a 2-0 win. At the same time, he garnered nine wins (10 losses) in this season. His maximum speed of four-seam fastballs (50 pitches) was 151 kilometers per hour, and he displayed proper harmony with curves (29) and slider (13) and folk balls (7 pitches).

He must have been heavy, but he overcame it and gave LG a valuable victory. Elizer Hernandez, who started in the previous doubleheader game, lost 7-14 as he was sent off with a head shot after five balls. LG, ranked third in the league, was closely chased by the fourth-place Doosan Bears, one step lower, but was able to widen the gap due to Son Joo-young's good pitching.

"[Son] was the best game of the season yesterday. I got something big," Yeom said of Son. "It must have been a great experience for (Son) Joo-young because he pitched well in a tight game. He also gave more trust to his team. He did well enough to be used as a starting pitcher in a big game. It was a meaningful game for both the bench and himself."

As LG is the most likely team to advance to the post season, Son will gradually try to prepare for this. With impressive pitching, Son won the starting position during the fall baseball season. As the post season does not require the use of the five-starter system as in the regular season, some starting pitchers often wait in the bullpen. While LG intends to run the post season with three starting pitchers, Son has just won the position. "[Son] will definitely start in the post season," Yeom said.

For starters, Choi Won-tae (9 wins, 6 losses, and a 4.25 ERA in 120 ⅔ innings) will take the place. And one of the foreign starting pitchers Detrick Ns (12 wins, 6 losses, 161 ⅔ innings, 4.12 ERA in 29 games this year), Eliaser Hernandez (3 wins, 2 losses, 1 hold, 1 save, 42 innings, 4.29 ERA in 10 games this year), and Lim Chan-kyu (a 3.77 ERA in 129 innings in 24 games this year) will fill the starting lineup, and the remaining two players will move to the bullpen. This is a preparation to reinforce the bullpen, which has been unstable throughout the season.

Manager Yeom said, "(Choi) Wontae cannot go in the middle due to his personality. Two players, along with (Son) Joo-young, are confirmed. (For example) N.C. can go in the middle, or he can go as a starting pitcher. He can go in the middle in the semi-playoff, and he can become a starting pitcher in the playoffs. The remaining three players do not know how they will change. I try to use them as a way to maximize power based on opponent teams' records and situations. Since the bullpen is weak, he can block and save one inning, as well as long relief. There is no position. If he goes in the post season, (Yoo) Young-chan can make a save, or he can play in the middle (to overcome the crisis). Hernandez can make a save. No one knows. After the season ends, I will have a meeting with the coaching staff after analyzing their power. I will discuss my thoughts and make a final decision by combining my opinions."

Manager Yeom must have a lot of worries about running the postseason mound. "There are many options going around in my head," he said. First of all, will Son Joo-young, who was promised a spot, continue his performance in fall baseball.
