LG's first start of the new year..."I'll fight back in the second half to win back the championship".

Professional baseball LG held a New Year's greeting and announced its first start of the new year.

The biggest variable in winning is the mound, and the calculation is that injuries and major players in the military will see the game in the second half of the year.

The year 2025 when the team's president and general manager, coach and team faced each other and began with a loud New Year's greeting.

Everyone's goal is the trophy lost to KIA last year.

The
case is the mound, but LG moved faster than any other year.

FA Jang Hyun-sik and Kim Kang-ryul were brought in to reinforce the bullpen, which fell to sixth place in ERA last year, and Choi Chae-heung and Shim Chang-min were also recruited.

3, 4th starter Lim Chan-kyu and Son Joo-young expect 10 wins, 9 wins, and more than that last season.

LG sees the return of starting resource Lee Jung-yong from the military and Yoo Young-chan and Ham Deok-joo, who are on the operating table side by side, as a match for July.

Park Hae-min, who was unusually selected as the new captain ahead of the FA, first of all, expressed his determination to renew the team's atmosphere, where two people have caused a stir by drunk driving in the last three months.

LG will leave for Arizona on the 23rd for off-season training and start preparing for the season in earnest.
