LG Twins prospect Song Seung-ki is aiming to enter the starting lineup for the 2025 season.

Returning from the Futures League in Sangmu, he enters a fierce competition for the team's fifth starting position.

Last year, Song pitched in 20 games for Sangmu, recording 11 wins, 4 losses and a 2.41 ERA. He had his best season, winning the Southern League Victory Award and the ERA Award, sweeping the top spots in the categories of multiple wins, ERA and strikeouts in the two major leagues. 토토사이트

"It was difficult in the beginning, but I just thought about 'let's throw six innings', and I got a good result," said Song Seung-ki, who recalled, "There is a difference between the Futures League and the first team, but I want to adapt quickly and solve it well."

He also changed his jersey number ahead of the new season. He wanted to have 99th place for his role model Ryu Hyun-jin, but he chose 13th place because his coach Kim Kwang-sam was using it. "I thought about number 66 as well, but at some point, I noticed number 13," he said, expressing a new mindset.

The fifth starting pitcher must compete with Woo Kang-hoon, Lee Ji-gang and Choi Chae-heung. Attention is focusing on whether he will be able to grow like Son Joo-young, who started in the fifth starting pitcher last year and has grown into an ace player.

Son Joo-young encouraged her junior, saying, "This year, you have to do it to make the game easier."

Song Seung-ki told his fans, "I think he's worried that he'll only do well in commerce and be sluggish after returning," adding, "I'll do the same, so please support him a lot."

Meanwhile, Song Seung-ki will be included in LG's spring camp list and will start preparing for the season in Arizona.
