[견제구] "Air Combat" by recruiting the will, there is no reason to hesitate

The FA market, which was supposed to become very active in the cook league, is still frozen. The list of FA has been announced and it has been a week since the free negotiations with 10 clubs are over, but no contract has been signed yet.

Noh Kyoung-eun (Lotte) and Park Kyung-soo (KT), who are considered very likely to stay in the team, have not signed the contract yet. Above all, the destination of Yang's will, which is the "biggest" of the market, is still sweet. There is also a perspective that it could be longer than expected.

KBO clubs, which had been spouting rumors of unreasonable competition in the past, are now reacting to the fact that the ransom of the FA players is overwhelmed by the 10 billion won period and they are reluctant to open their portfolios. In order to recruit an FA in the major leagues after 2012, it is necessary to invest a significant sum of at least 4 years and 5 billion.

FA prices in each position have risen to 8 billion won in four years, and for a contract with a player considered a league like Yangjiji, he must prepare a very large contract of more than 10 billion won over four years. Even a baseball team backed by a large company can not easily think that its expenses will increase easily because the size of budget execution is limited.

However, can we badume that the willingness to wait more than 10 billion contracts over four years is overpaid in the current KBO league?

Past records do not guarantee future performance, but they are useful for confirming current performance. If you look at Yang Ji-ji's batting record, you will see that he shows a good level of batting ability after the 2015 season. In 2015, when Doosan won the Korea Series in 14 years is a season in which Yang Ji-soo would have opened his eyes.

With the exception of the 2017 season, which had been sluggish because of injuries on the back of the hand, it has touched 30% and more than 20 circuits. There are not many right-handed batters who can actually claim that he has demonstrated more sophistication than Yang Ji-soo, even though he's only been hitting for four years.

Not only is he sophisticated, but it should be noted that he has logged more than 20 homeruns over the years, even though he's home to the largest Jamsil stadium in Korea. In fact, you can see a big ball flying past the Jamsil Stadium fence when you watch Yang's home game. If the ambitions must be "denied", more than 30 circuits will be possible.

In fact, it is not easy to show a stable and excellent typing ability in this position in receiver position. Lee Jae-won (SK), another hunter in the AF market, is far from stable. Lee had a good batting average (batting average 0.329 / OPS 0.918 / 17 allers) this season, but he was just below the average of the previous year (batting average 0.242 / OPS 0.668 / 9) .

It is very difficult to show a regular shot while digging the receiver's position. The average contribution to victory (WAR) compared to the average player in the last four seasons regularly rises to the top of the league with an annual average of 5.0. The receiver, who has a constant production capacity in the KBO league, is only 31 years old.

It's not just hitting. When badessing his willingness on the ground, including Doosan's training staff, his true value lies in the responsiveness of the defense rather than the offensive. In fact, Doosan reigns as a league team since 2015 and defense stability on both sides is not unimportant.

In 2010, when he received the Rookie of the Year award, he was impressed but defensive, he was impressed to have evolved to become a baseball player in the last eight qualifying seasons to F.

Even with the exception of throwing forward, which is difficult to quantify, even with a regular flight jamming and blocking, which is the ability to launch the ball from a pitcher, Yang Ji-ji is the most stable defensive player in the league.

When you examine the air capabilities of the two wills, you can see that "paying too much" is a word that does not fit this one. He is deployed at number 5 or 6 to manage his physical strength due to his catcher position, but he has enough kicking skills to be able to lead the team in third or fourth place. This is a considerable advantage since most teams in the KBO league have the weakest players in the receiver position.

He also has the most stable receiver defense in the league. If a weak pitching team recruits him, the mound will have a somewhat stabilizing effect if his ambition is in his room.

The investment of more than 2.5 billion euros per year in a specific player of the FA is a matter of concern. However, Yang Ji-eun has the ability to simultaneously increase the score of the team. It's almost the only card that can make a noticeable difference in the power-up competition with other teams because of the changing rules for recruiting foreign players.

If you are a team of big markets whose goal is to advance in the Korean series, you really can not hesitate. The contract with the best receiver, Yang Ji-soo, of the league that gets the best result in the league KBO, which is the best result of the championship, can be considered a rational investment that can lead to visible results rather than " overpay".
