Shin Sung-hyun was nominated for Hiroshima in the 4th place in the draft in 2008, and now belongs to Doosan Bears.
Kyoto International High School, which advanced to the top four at Koshien last summer, has produced seven professional baseball players in the past. Shin Sung-hyun, an infielder who was nominated for Hiroshima in the 4th place in the draft in 2008, was the first to become a professional player. Shin Sung-hyun from Seoul, South Korea went to Japan when he entered high school. Although he advanced to professional baseball, he became a free contract only in 2013, the fifth year, without participating in one army at NPB. However, he is still active in professional baseball in his home country, South Korea. Korean media and MK Sports are telling the “now” of reimported professional players.
The article was titled “Shin Sung-hyun, the King of the 2nd Army, has only the last chance left”, and reported that Shin Sung-hyun, who was born in 1990, is on the verge of continuing to be active.
It has been nine years since he left Hiroshima in 2014 after he devoted himself to Korean professional baseball. In 2016, Hanwha settled in one army, batting average .278 in 89 games, 8 home runs and seemed to have solidified as a professional baseball player. In July of this year, he also won the MVP in the “Futures All-Star” where young players participate.
However, since the trade transfer to Doosan Bears in the spring of 2017, the chances of participation have been decreasing. Although he left .331 batting average in the 2nd army last season, he has played 11 games in the 1st army and has a batting average of .182.
The article points out that it is not the striking ability that Shin Sung-hyun survived (now off). The reason for his survival is that he has a firm grasp of his juniors in the 2nd army and serves as a consultant. ” The reason for this was “There were various opinions about the departure of Shin Sung-hyun. Since he is a sincere and leadership player, the insistence that he should give him another chance was a force. The score was that he was pulling his juniors, “said a comment from a Doosan official. It was a re-contract because it was evaluated that the role played by the team was still necessary rather than the ability as a player.
