Minjae Jang said, “I am happy to be able to play with the Hanwha Eagles next season as well,” and added

I am grateful to be able to stand in front of our fans who always support us so generously.”

It has been 20 days since Yang Seok-hwan (Doosan Bears) signed a free agent contract in the Stove League this winter on the 1st of this month.
