It is said that there is no business ahead of time. No matter how outstanding an athlete is, when he or she is in his or her mid-30s, his or her physical ability will decline and he will inevitably suffer a decline. This is especially true for ball games that use the body.

Kim Kwang-hyun, the forever ace of the SSG Landers, joined the team in 2007 and became the best left-hander pitcher of the KBO League beyond the SK Wyverns and SSG. His fastball, which stretches over 150 kilometers from his tall height, captivated many fans. His relentless pitching, which he says "If you dare, hit me," made viewers feel cool. Handsome looks are a bonus.먹튀검증

However, Kim Kwang-hyun is already 37 years old this year. He actually showed signs that he can't resist the years. He went downhill after going 13-3 with a 2.13 ERA in the 2022 season. He maintained his ERA at 3.53, but failed to match his 9-8-10 win streak. He went 12-10 last season, but his ERA soared to 4.93. His career-high ERA is especially high in the fifth-place tiebreaker against KT Wiz as a hidden card that will keep him from winning at the end of the game, but the scene where Rojas hit a come-from-behind home run caught many people's minds.

A record is set, but the powerful ball that presses down on the opponent has disappeared. Should I say that batters are not afraid of Kim Kwang-hyun? Experts say in unison, "Now is the time for Kim to unconditionally engage in a head-to-head match." Just like Yang Hyeon-jong, who changed course early on, he needs to increase his breaking ball hitting rate and pitch catch.

Still, Kim Kwang-hyun was Kim Kwang-hyun. It was an important season that he played ahead of his third attempt at the FA. Four games after the season opened were not bad. He won two runs in five ⅔ innings against the Doosan Bears and lost the game against the Kiwoom Heroes, but pitched well by allowing two runs in five innings. The game against the KT Wiz and the Samsung Lions also pitched well, allowing one run in five innings and eight strikeouts in six innings. It was regrettable that he did not have a win.

However, signs have been unusual since the game against the Hanwha Eagles on the 16th. He gave up five runs in five innings. He also gave up 10 hits during five ⅔ innings against KT, collapsing to five runs (four earned runs). Then on the 28th, he allowed seven runs, the most in a season against Kiwoom, and was forced to leave the mound early in three ⅓ innings. It was a fatal hit to allow Oh Sun-jin to load the bases, but he seemed to be in poor condition, receiving consecutive hits from the start of the game.

In the game against Kiwoom, the maximum speed of fastballs was 146 kilometers, but most of them were in the early 140 kilometers range. Confidence in fastballs must have been low, and the proportion of breaking balls was high. While throwing 22 fastballs, he mixed 30 sliders, 17 changeups, and 15 curves. Controlling ball is the lifeblood of the team to pitch such a breaking ball, but as the ball control did not go as desired, the game had to be solved difficult.

Of course, it was a daytime game, but the weather was rather chilly, and a back-to-back Tuesdays and Sundays could have had consequences. In the case of Oh Sun-jin's grand slam, the batter hit a ball well that entered the batter's box with a hard-to-hit ball. However, the record of losing three consecutive games in which a large number of lost points is not just bad luck. It is clear that Kim Kwang-hyun is not the one we knew.

Kim has secured his first FA status, signed a non-FA multi-year contract worth 8.5 billion won (8.5 billion won) and 15.1 billion won (approx. He is playing his fourth and final season with strong enthusiasm. Will Kim be able to write an unexpected drama.
