It is January. It is time to turn the tide of hope for the lowest ranking teams. The Hanwha Eagles feels different even among the lowest ranking teams in their lifetime. The Eagles has recruited top-class free agents, made large contracts, and made top-class rookie players almost every year. Will this season, the first season after joining the new stadium, be really different.안전놀이터

Many say that Korea needs to change its position now. This winter, the team strengthened its starting lineup and the central infield line through the FA Eom Sang-baek and Shim Woo-joon. Will the 2024 season and the 2025 season be different when Ryu failed to rebound despite his return? Cha Woo-chan, who retired and runs a YouTube channel, expressed his views through a "Cheat Chit Chit."

Cha Woo-chan predicted that the mound is important for a long-term race, and that Hanwha can advance to the fifth round. "I have to play baseball at a new stadium, and (Chae) Eun-sung (a colleague from LG Twins) has to go now," Cha said. "This team is the best. The chairman loves baseball. He is an influential team that visits so many times and has a broadcast for only one baseball game at the top of the club's YouTube subscribers. In a way, it is always a concern in KBO."

"From what I know, coach Kim Kyung-moon's winning percentage (42 wins, 44 losses and one draw) since he took office in the middle of last year's season," Cha Woo-chan said. He has also picked up the first draft (Kim Seo-hyun, Hwang Jun-seo, and Jung Woo-joo are the second in the first grade) every year. And FA (Chae Eun-sung, An Chi-hong, Lee Tae-yang, Um Sang-baek, Shim Woo-jun). They only buy players who are good at that. They gathered and invested. I am not in vain that (Ryu) Hyun-jin said that he could go on a TV show and become a really high ranking player. I think the combination is right now. This season is worth a try."

The starting lineup, which will consist of Ryan Weiss, Stylist Ponce, Ryu Hyun-jin, Um Sang-baek and Moon Dong-ju, is the most competitive. Cha Woo-chan said, "The height of Hanwha's 2025 season is its pitching staff. Hanwha can't calculate right now. With the exception of Ryu Hyun-jin and foreign pitchers, Joo Hyun-sang (finishing) did very well last year, but he didn't always stay in the position. Some players just popped up all of a sudden. Of course, these players start off with the mindset of 'they will do well this year, too,' but we don't know what will happen again."

It is true that starting pitchers are strong points, but there are not many pitchers with average pitching capabilities. However, Cha Woo-chan said, "Middle pitchers, Kim Seo-hyun and Jung Woo-joo will have no idea how strong their potential can be. Kim Seo-hyun suddenly throws 160 kilometers to make 40 saves, or Moon Dong-ju can really dominate the league by winning 15 games and scoring two points in ERA. They are capable players that much."

If it explodes in a good way, you no longer have to rely on Ryu Hyun-jin. Cha Woo-chan said, "Now, if young pitchers like Kim Seo-hyun, Jung Woo-ju, and Um Sang-baek burst to the point where they are ahead of Hyun-jin, fifth place is not a problem."

However, Cha Woo-chan said that Hanwha's bullpen still has an uneasy side. In fact, this part is the Achilles' heel. Cha Woo-chan said, "Hanwha has had Jung Woo-ram senior, and now they raise young players. Joo Hyun-sang did very well last year, and Park Sang-won sometimes did well with finishing. But isn't it a little too early to think that it's a definite finish? I can collapse two or three games at any time."

You need to have the ability to heal these Achilles tendons on your own to reach the 5th round. Cha Woo-chan said, "Hanwha is a team with great potential. The batting lineup is already good enough. It was not a team that lost because they couldn't hit the bat. The pitcher's influence is great. There are many young players now, and there are enough things that talented players have shown. If only one or two players take turns, I think the ranking will go up."
