Miles Mycholas, who played the role of ‘one-two punch’ at the St. Louis Cardinals with Adam Wainwright this year, has been selected for the US World Baseball Classic (WBC) national team.
On the 13th (Korean time), the US WBC team reported on the official SNS that St. Louis Cardinals Miles Michaels joined the WBC team. 메이저놀이터
Mycholas is a representative player who wrote the myth of ‘reverse export’ in Japanese professional baseball. Michaelas made his big league debut with the San Diego Padres in 2012, moved to the Texas Rangers and then to the Yomiuri Giants in Japan in 2015. Mycholas went 31-13 with a 2.18 ERA in 62 games over three seasons at Yomiuri, and returned to the major leagues.
In 2018, the first season of his return, Mykola recorded 18 wins and 4 losses with an average ERA of 2.83 in 32 games, and wrote the myth of reverse export, ranking first in the National League’s most wins and winning percentage. And the following year, in 32 games, he continued his steady performance with an average ERA of 4.16 with 9 wins and 14 losses.
Afterwards, Michaels missed many games due to injury, but returned to the mound this year. And with Waintwright, he made a one-two punch and was selected as the second All-Star in his life after 2018, digesting 202⅓ innings in 33 games (32 starts), leaving an excellent record of 12 wins and 13 losses with an average ERA of 3.29.
The weight of the pitching staff is somewhat less than that of the US WBC national team, which has super-luxurious fielders such as Major League ‘signboard hitter’ Mike Trout (LA Angels), Mookie Betts (LA Dodgers), and Pete Alonso (New York Mets). As a result, he is currently focusing on reinforcing his pitching staff.
The United States strengthened its power by joining Wainwright, who had 195 wins in the major leagues, Merrill Kelly (Arizona Diamondbacks), Nestor Cortes (New York Yankees), and Logan Webb (San Francisco Giants), as well as Michaels, in the KBO league. are going out
