"Team that can bet on a place to win" Why Hanwha is ranked 9th as the dark horse even after winning 8 consecutive games in 6593 days

KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-chul picked the Hanwha Eagles as the dark horse for postseason competition.

Coach Lee Kang-chul talked about the fierce competition for the mid-tier ranking in an interview before the match against the KIA Tigers of the "2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League" held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 8th.

This season, the KBO League is really competitive in the middle ranks. With No. 1 LG (49 wins, 2 draws, 29 losses) and No. 2 SSG (46 wins, 1 draw and 31 losses), seven teams are concentrated in six games from No. 3 Doosan (41 wins, 1 draw and 36 losses) to No. 9 Hanwha (33 wins, 4 draws and 40 losses). KT also suffered a slump to the bottom of the season, but succeeded in advancing to the postseason by ranking first in monthly winning rate with 15 wins and 8 losses in June.

Coach Lee Kang-chul, who said, "I'm also a human being, so I'm in a hurry," said, "The winning margin fell to -14 and then went up to -3 in a row, which made me greedy." These days, I'm trying to find composure. Other teams also did a lot of maintenance and changed all the players to change. There is little time to fall and climb. It should not fall at this time. I have to hit it now, but I think the current structure will continue for the time being. "There are no easy teams," he said, predicting competition for the rankings this season. 토토

When asked when to bet on the match, head coach Lee Kang-chul stressed, "Every day is a match," adding, "In fact, there is no special time or way to bet the match." "If there is a really clear ace, we can put the first and second starters in the rotation on the 4th to bet on the game, but our team is not in a situation where that can happen," he explained.

Coach Lee Kang-chul, who pointed out, "Most teams don't have a definite ace," said, "It seems that Ahn Woo-jin (Kiem) is the only ace who can bet on the match." "If Ahn Woo-jin continues to take the mound after a four-day break at the end of the season, the chances of winning will definitely increase," he said. "Hanwha is also a team that can bet on the winner." "Because there are Ricardo Sanchez, Felix Peña and Moon Dong-joo, it's worth betting on the match," he said.

Hanwha defeated Samsung 10-4 on the 1st and won eight consecutive games in 6593 days. After the consecutive wins have been cut off, he has slowed down to two wins and three losses and is still in ninth place in the league, but he is still in a position to seek to advance to the postseason by three games from fifth-place NC.

This season's KBO League is expected to have fans watching the cheering team with sweat in their hands until the end of the season as competition for rankings continues more fiercely than ever.
