Jack Gallen (28, Arizona Diamondbacks), who showed off his outstanding skills last year, was named National League Player of the Week after sluggishness in the first two games.
The Major League 안전놀이터Secretariat announced on the 18th (Korean time) that Gallen was selected as the National League Player of the Week. This is the first time since September of last year and the second time in my career.
Gallen went 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA in 13 2/3 innings over the past week in two games. He also struck out 18 while giving up one walk.
On the 11th, against the Milwaukee Brewers, he recorded 7 innings, 3 hits, and 11 strikeouts, and on the 17th, against the Miami Marlins, he flew wild with 6 2/3 innings, 2 hits and no runs.
This broke the slump of 5 runs in 4 2/3 innings before the opening match and 5 runs in 6 innings on the 5th (4 earned runs). As a result, Gallen’s season ERA fell from 7.59 to 3.33.
Gallen, a fifth-year major leaguer, posted a 2.54 ERA in 184 innings in 31 games last year. A very outstanding record for a pitcher who uses Chase Field as his home stadium.
As a result, Gallen ranked fifth in last year’s Cy Young Award voting. Gallen has now grown into an ace-class pitcher representing the major leagues.
