He overturned everyone's evaluation and achieved the third-place performance. SSG Landers, which is now looking at higher goals, has declared an infinite competition mode.

SSG Landers will complete its first spring camp in Vero Beach, Florida, and hold its second camp in Miyazaki, Japan, for 15 days from February 23 to March 9.

This year's SSG 2nd camp is characterized by a significant strengthening of the period and size compared to last year. The club increased the camp period from 11 days to 15 days in order to increase the efficiency of training and increase the sense of practice early.

The squad also expanded from 50 last year to 57 this year, strengthening depth across all positions. Accordingly, 19 coaching staff, including manager Lee Soo-yong, 17 pitchers, 3 catchers, 9 infielders and 9 outfielders will participate.

For the first time, SSG selected Miyazaki, Japan, as its second spring camp site. Miyazaki is preferred as a training site by major Japanese professional baseball teams due to its mild climate and excellent training facilities. SSG plans to enhance the players' sense of practice by facing Japanese teams such as the Softbank Hawks and Rakuten Eagles as well as practice games with domestic teams in this camp.

In addition, the key task of this second camp is to strengthen power through the discovery of new resources. In order to induce fierce internal competition, the club seeks to strengthen the depth by introducing a large number of promising players who have shown excellent training performance in the Futures camp. As a result, not only starting pitcher candidates but also internal and external backup resources were added.

In addition to Kim Kwang-hyun, who left due to injury, Ryu Hyo-seung, a giant outfielder who made a strong impression at the end of last season, along with infielder Seok Jung-woo, left. Instead, pitcher Lee Ki-soon, infielder Kim Min-joon, outfielder Kim Jung-min, and outfielder Lee Seung-min, the son of "Red Toma" LG Twins second-tier manager Lee Byung-kyu, joined.

Coach Lee Soo-yong said, "If the first camp was a time to strengthen physical strength and basic skills, the second camp in Miyazaki is a process of raising the sense of practice in time for the opening. We expect players to grow and prove through practice games. "The most important thing is to have a healthy season without injury even in the midst of competition," he explained.

Meanwhile, SSG will play a total of six practice games during the camp. Starting with the game against the Softbank Hawks on the 25th, they will face the Rakuten Eagles on the 28th, the Lotte Giants on March 2 and 3, and the Doosan Bears on the 5th and 6th to check their power.
