"We appointed Choi as compensation for Choi Won-tae, who moved to Samsung after becoming a free agent," LG said on Wednesday. "Choi has proven his capability by winning 11 games as a starting pitcher in 2020. If he regains his form, he is expected to be able to take charge of a position as a starting player in Korea."
Choi joined Samsung through the first round of nominations in 2018. His career performance in the first division of the KBO League is 27-29 with five holds and an ERA of 4.59 in 117 games.
In 2020, he pitched 146 innings, recording 11 wins and six losses with an ERA of 3.58. However, his performance has significantly declined since then. This year, he pitched in only 14 games in the first team, and held one hold without losing or losing, and posted an ERA of 6.30.
Leaving LG, Choi signed a four-year contract with Samsung for up to 7 billion won (6.37 million U.S. dollars). Having recruited Choi, an FAA-grade player, Samsung has to pay 200 percent of its previous year's salary (800 million won) to LG, one other than 20 protected players.
After checking Samsung's list of 20 protected players, LG scored high on "Choi Chae-heung's potential" and chose him as a reward player.
