The announcement date of the final entry for the Asian Games has come. There are many factors that are drawing attention in the final entry of the Asian Games, but the most important element among them is the amateur baseball quota.
In particular, there is a possibility that high school graduates, who have never been selected, will be selected, which is a hot topic. Among them 메이저사이트, Jang Hyun-suk of Masan Yongma High School, one of the biggest fish of the season, is known to be included, drawing public attention. There are circumstantial evidence that Jang Hyun-seok was included here and there.
If Jang Hyun-suk is selected, it has many meanings. For the first time in history, a high school graduate will be included in the final entry for the Asian Games. So far, there have been several players included in the Asian Games as amateur quotas. Players such as Kim Myung-sung (2010 Guangzhou Asian Games), Jung Min-hyuk (2006 Doha Asian Games), and Hong Sung-moo (2014 Incheon Asian Games) are representative.
However, high school graduates have never been selected so far. If a high school graduate is selected this time, there will be a new wind in baseball.
High school graduate Choi Dae-eo will become the first precedent to compete in the Asian Games. And as the current reversal of high school graduates’ skills is clear, it is very likely that high school graduates will take up the quota of amateur baseball in the future.
In addition, if Jang Hyun-seok is selected, the Hanwha Eagles, which have the authority to nominate Jang Hyun-seok as the number one nomination right, may actually enjoy the effect of selecting three people. Hanwha is very likely to have Moon Dong-joo and Roh Si-hwan on board the Asian Games. This is because the two currently have few competitors. However, if Jang Hyun-seok is selected, Hanwha is more likely to nominate Jang Hyun-seok than now.
Then, in fact, the effect of nominating three people can be enjoyed, and generational change can be further accelerated.
Finally, for Jang Hyun-suk, this is a great boon. First of all, participating as an amateur as a member of the national team is a completely different matter from the youth team. It is expected to gain more momentum in ransom negotiations. It may also be more positive in promoting overseas expansion in the future. This is because overseas clubs also have more room to pay attention to Jang Hyun-suk if the military service problem is resolved.
However, Jang Hyun-seok has not yet thrown the ball due to injury, and he has to submit a KBO draft application scheduled for July before the Asian Games (if he does not submit an application, he cannot participate in the draft), so the Asian Games selection = overseas expansion is not unconditionally established. It is different from the case of Kim Byung-hyun, who went abroad with military exemption. It may be strongly criticized for seeking to advance abroad after receiving military exemption due to the baseball quota. This is all the more so that the Asian Games are known to be able to replace the entry until just before.
In addition, as in the case of Shim Joon-seok last year, there is a risk that they have to wait until January next year because there is not enough grass for overseas clubs right now.
In many ways, Jang Hyun-suk’s preliminary entry list for the Asian Games is expected to become a fresh shock and a big topic for both amateur and professional baseball. Baseball fans’ eyes and ears are focusing on KBO at 2 p.m. on June 9 whether Jang Hyun-suk will be able to join the AG national team for the first time in high school.
