Former and current KBO top hitters Lee Jung-hoo (27, San Francisco Giants) and Kim Do-young (22, KIA Tigers). Kim Kwang-hyun (37, SSG Landers) appeared on Yoon Seok-min's YouTube channel "Cyber Yoon Seok-min" on the 10th and confessed that he and most SSG pitchers rated Lee Jung-hoo as the superiority.토토사이트
Kim Kwang-hyun said, "Lee Jung-hoo and Kim Do-young are better than Lee Jung-hoo and Lee Jung-hoo. Lee Jung-hoo is good at hitting balls. He can make a hit by touching all the balls." This characteristic of Lee Jung-hoo naturally gives pitchers a feeling of frustration and despair.
Lee's strongest point is contact. He had a batting average of 0.340, or 0.340 for seven years in the KBO. He ranks first among all KBO hitters who have played 3,000 or more at-bats. Since his debut in 2017, he has hit .300 in regulation for six consecutive years through 2022. He did not meet the regulation at-bats in 2023, but he still hit .300. The contact coverage is wide. There were no courses he could not hit and no balls he could not hit.
Strictly speaking, Lee and Kim are hitters with completely different styles. Lee tends to make strong hits and double plays while maintaining his own posture while having good contact with each other. In contrast, Kim showed off his slugging ability and home run production ability with 38 home runs in the 2024 season. He excels in unique athletic abilities, especially the ability to make home runs with extreme body speed.
In the video, Ryu said, "I feel uncomfortable because Kim Do-young is in good contact with Lee and fast, but also good at home runs." If he hits a home run well, he is highly likely to grow into a batter with more destructive power than Lee in the long run. Industry insiders view him the same way.
However, during the 2024 season, an official emphasized Lee Jung-hoo's strengths similar to Kim Kwang-hyun, and said that what Kim Do-young has to overcome and show is Lee Jung-hoo's consistency. "What's really great about Lee Jung-hoo is that he continued to do well without a season that he never did for seven years," he said.
In fact, Lee recorded a batting average of 0.324-0.355-0.336-0.333-0.360-0.349-0.318. His OPS also maintained the highest rank in the league, with a batting average of 0.812-0.889-0.842-0.921-0.976-0.861.
Of course, Lee Jung-hoo had his worst start when changing his batting form in the early 2023 season. However, he returned to his original form and swung hard like a ghost. That's how clear he was. He was recognized by the Major League by keeping it for seven years.
Kim also spent three full-time years. If she spends four more years, she will be eligible to post in the Major League. The prevailing view is that it will be difficult for her to have a crazy season like 2024. However, she has tremendous potential and sealing that makes people expect to have a better season than 2024.
It's good to hit a high point, but it's really powerful to show it consistently. Lee Jung-hoo proved it. Kim Do-young has to prove it in the future. He has not been able to show it properly due to professional adaptation and injuries over the past two years. He has just started making Abidge. The industry predicts that Kim Do-young's performance volume will not drop significantly in the future. He is a very talented player, and he has a great belief in the genius who tries.
