Even if you prepare slowly, it's already 159km...Qualifications for selection as evidenced by Moon Dong-ju

Right-hander Moon Dong-ju (Hanwha) will start the game. He started in an exhibition game against SSG on Wednesday. This is his first real game this season. He did not participate in the exhibition game as well as the previous practice game of the spring camp. He played live pitching (35 pitches) on the 7th to adjust his senses. He threw a total of 19 pitches in one inning. He only allowed one walk without hitting. He managed to get two strikeouts. A powerful fastball in the late 150km period was inserted into the catcher's mit. The maximum speed was 159km based on the electric display and 159km based on the team's track man.
 
It wasn't just that he threw a lot of pitches. His ball control wasn't that bad, as he struck out Park with breaking balls (sliders). On the day, Moon also checked various pitching arsenals including sliders (4), curves (3), folk balls (3), and two-seam (1st trial) in addition to fastballs (8). "I pitched on the mound for the first time in a long time. I'm satisfied because I think I threw well and healthy. I was a little excited because it's been a long time since I last pitched. I don't think I'll have a big problem if I get a little more sense of play," Moon said with a smile.먹튀검증
 
Moon Dong-ju wore the Hanwha uniform as the first designated player in 2022. He had high expectations since he was an amateur. His main weapon is a fastball over 160 kilometers. He was the first Korean player to surpass the 160-kilometer barrier. On April 12, 2023, he threw a 160.1 kilometer-long ball against KIA in Gwangju. He swept the Rookie of the Year award (23 games won 8 games, 8 losses with an ERA of 3.72) in the same year. He has been spotlighted as a next-generation ace who will lead Korean baseball beyond the league. In fact, he showed off his outstanding presence at the Hangzhou Asian Games and the Asian Professional Baseball Championship.
 
It is a negative factor for his injury that caused him to take unstoppable steps and draw commas in between. This is also the reason why he started the season a little late. He finished the season one beat faster last season due to shoulder fatigue. He focused on recovery throughout the winter. He also went to a rehabilitation camp in Thailand with seniors including Lee Tae-yang. The most important thing is health. He made plans for the long term and took steps step by step. The pain is almost gone. Moon's pitching is good for tomorrow. His physical condition is improving as if he is showing restraint.
 
He will serve as the starting pitcher for the fifth time this season. He will play the role of foreigners' one-two punch (Cody Ponce, Ryan Weiss), Ryu Hyun-jin, and Um Sang-baek. The timing of his participation in the regular league has yet to be determined. Some people mentioned that he would go to the bullpen due to delayed preparation, but it is not true. "How can he not be used as a starting pitcher when he (restraint) is over 150 kilometers away?" Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said. "I am making great efforts to do something on my own this year. It will be a great boost when (my physical condition) becomes complete," Kim stressed.
 
He moves with a clear plan. First of all, he needs to increase the number of pitches. During the exhibition games, he will take two days off, then play for the second time (14th) and three days off (18th). He originally planned to continue his pitching after two days off, but considered the fact that the match against Samsung in Daejeon will be held at night on Thursday. As the weather could be chilly, he decided to postpone the game for a day. "I want to come back as the starting pitcher as soon as possible and be of help to my team. I will do my best to repay fans who always give me big support," Moon said.
