In particular, he dreamed of a different future with a new attempt after experiencing a wave of simultaneous dismissal of the coach and general manager during the 2019 regular season. When he appointed Sung Min-gyu, a former major league scout, he dreamed of Lotte’s great revolution. The transition period was inevitable. He also tried to endure the pain that inevitably occurred in the process of this transformation. Sung Min-gyu’s ‘process’ made Lotte dream of a rosy future.

As a result, four years later, there has been no rosy future. Only the present, which is close to gray, remains. Since 2020, when general manager Sung Min-gyu’s system began in earnest, he has failed to play fall baseball for four consecutive years. It ranked seventh in 2020 and eighth in both 2021 and 2022. And this year it was seventh. He did not give up the fall baseball competition until the last minute, but it was not enough to reverse the result. The previous two years of failing to advance to the postseason for six consecutive years are the result of having to deal with the mistakes of the previous system, but the failures of the last four years have no excuse.

The process and results for 2022 and 2023 were identical. It was the season of Yongdumi. Last year, he also rushed to the second place in the early part of the season, but fell from May and eventually finished the season in eighth place. 토토사이트
