The ending was a futile release. He is 31 years old and is facing retirement.

The NC Dinos started reorganizing their teams on Tuesday. The team has decided to release five pitchers including Shim Chang-min, Lee Hyun-woo, Ha Jun-su, Lee Woo-suk and Kim Ju-hwan, and all four fielders including Yoon Hyung-joon, Choi Woo-jae, Kim Soo-yoon and Kim Tae-woo. They separated from the nine players on a single day alone.토토사이트

Among them, we cannot help but pay attention to the name Shim Chang-min. Once a top-class sidearm pitcher who even served as a member of the national team, he could not avoid being released in the end.

Shim Chang-min, who joined Samsung in 2011, began to gain spotlight in 2012 when he recorded a 1.83 ERA with 2 wins, 2 losses and 1 save and 5 holds in 39 ⅓ innings in 37 games. Shim Chang-min, who played as a member of the "Samsung Dynasty" team with a 2.68 ERA in 50 ⅓ innings in 2013, slowed down with a 6.81 ERA of 5 wins, 2 losses and 8 holds in 38 ⅓ innings in 52 games in 2014, but improved to 6 wins, 3 losses and 9 holds in 67 ⅓ innings with a 4.28 ERA in 61 games in 2015, transformed into a closer in 2016, and showed remarkable performance with a 2.97 ERA with 2 wins, 6 losses and 25 saves in 72 ⅔ innings in 62 games.

This performance provided a foothold for him to join the World Baseball Classic (WBC) national team in 2017. Shim Chang-min, who left 66 ⅓ innings with 4 wins, 7 losses, 6 saves, 16 holds, and an ERA of 4.18 in 66 ⅓ innings in 2017, joined Sangmu to solve military service problems after playing 5 wins, 2 losses, 17 saves, 5 holds, and an ERA of 4.07 in 59 ⅓ innings in 2018. Shim Chang-min, who returned to Samsung in 2020, was sluggish with 2 wins, 2 losses and 3 holds with an ERA of 7.52 in 20 ⅓ innings in 23 games, and also failed to meet his reputation with a ERA of 3 wins, 2 losses and 16 holds with an ERA of 5.08 in 51 ⅓ innings in 59 games in 2021.

The news that awaited him was a trade deal. Samsung used the card called Shim Chang-min to reinforce its home turf. The 150-km sidearm pitcher who played for the Korean national team was still valuable in the trade market. Notably, the fact that he was used as a trade card to bring in a catcher who is known for his gold price shows his value.

NC, which already had an ultra-large catcher named Yang Eui-ji, made a one-on-two deal to acquire Shim Chang-min and catcher Kim Eung-min by using Kim Tae-gun, a longtime catcher, as a founding member. It was exactly Dec. 13, 2021.

As NC demanded, however, Shim failed to make a comeback. Shim had to finish his first season with the worst result ever at NC by throwing one win, two losses and an earned run average of 14.21 in six ⅓ innings in 11 games in 2022. He pitched three ⅓ in five games last year, leaving only one loss and an earned run average of 2.70. He did not even make the first team stage this year. In the Futures League, he only posted a poor record of 2.84 in 19 ⅓ innings in 21 games.

In the end, NC Dinos decided to break up with Shim. Consequently, it was a failed trade. Will Shim, who has been fading away from fans' memories, be able to make a comeback? He is still 31 years old and in the midst of playing as a player. Attention is focusing on whether Shim, who has left a 4.22 ERA with 31 wins, 29 losses and 51 saves in 491 innings in his professional career, will be able to continue his career.
