Lewin Diaz, who succeeded in renewing his contract with the Samsung Lions by hitting five home runs in the postseason last year, received the first "warning" from head coach Park Jin-man.메이저놀이터
Coach Park took Diaz out of the lineup against the Doosan Bears on the 29th.
He said it was because of his conditioning, but he was not able to participate in the warning.
Although it is the beginning of this season, Diaz has shown somewhat sluggish performance with two home runs and a batting average of 0.240 (six hits in 25 times at bat). The problem is that he has shown extremely poor performance in the recent four games, with one hit in 16 times at bat (0.062). He is particularly helpless as opposing pitchers are intensively targeting his weaknesses.
If it continues to be sluggish in the future, it may be relegated to the Futures League. Diaz's second-tier performance is also expected, as Darin Ruf exploded after returning from the second-tier team.
Diaz has quite good power, but his pioneering eye certainly doesn't look good. His ball sambi is bad. In-out zone swing ratio is also bad.
He is a left-handed hitter with considerable slugging power, which is produced by strong wrist strength compared to his slender frame, but Samsung needs to keep an eye out for him given that he swings hard that he can hardly control once he falls into a slump. He might have had a "shiny base" in his explosive power last year.
