The KBO announced the 2023 free agent list on the 13th. Of the total 40, excludi
ng players who have already retired and players on multi-year contracts, only 30
are actually eligible for free agents.
韓職在13號公布取得自由球員資格名單(共40位)
然後扣掉退休+已經續約，剩下30位有權利行使FA
The key is how many of the players who obtained FA qualifications apply for FA.
It is important whether or not to exceed 21, which is the condition for recruiti
ng three external free agents. According to the baseball rules, if there are 11-
20 players who exercise their FA rights, 2 outside FAs can be recruited per club
, and if there are 21-30 players, 3 outside FAs can be contracted.
根據韓職規定，若申請FA人數在11-20人
各隊最多能簽2位別隊自由球員
但若申請人數超過21位的話，各隊就能簽到3位
Initially, the opinion among the clubs was that the number of applicants this ye
ar would not exceed 20. However, when the lid was opened, far more players than
expected were exercising their free agent rights. As of 7pm, it was confirmed th
at the number of applicants had already exceeded 20. The deadline is midnight on
the 15th, so there is a possibility that the number of FA players will increase
further.
球團原先預期今年申請人數會不到20位
但結果申請人數超乎預期，目前已經確定超過了
The unexpected wind of FA application is interpreted as the influence of the FA
rating system. Players classified as Class B and Class C for reasons such as re-
qualification as a free agent, salary, age, etc. exercised their free agent righ
ts.
It is known that Samsung Oh Seon-jin, Lotte Kang Yun-gu, and Hanwha Jang Si-hwan
, who are actually C-ranked, have applied for FA in large numbers.
起因在B級、C級自由球員很多都申請惹
The club is also encouraging internal FA players to apply for qualifications. Si
nce players who have signed an FA contract are excluded from the list of protect
ed players, it is easier for clubs seeking external signings to make a list of p
rotected players only if the internal FA players exercise their rights. It is kn
own that a veteran pitcher from a certain club, who was actually considering giv
ing up the FA, applied for FA status under sympathy with the club.
此外球團也有鼓勵球員行使FA
這樣就能不用列在FA補償保護名單內惹(假FA?)
目前已知一位資深投手，原本沒有打算行使FA
但後來為了球團，而照樣行使
