Cuevas, with an ERA of 0.50 in 5 games, was selected as the monthly MVP for August.
KT Wiz William Cuevas (32) was selected as the 2023 KBO League August Monthly Most Valuable Player (MVP).
The Secretariat of the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) said in a press release on the 11th, “Cuevas received a total score of 44.40 with 25 votes (83.3%) out of 30 votes from reporters and 23,562 votes (6%) from 390,207 votes from fans. “For the first time as an individual, a KT player was selected as the monthly MVP in about two years after Go Young-pyo in September 2021.” The first place in fan voting was Hanwha Eagles’ Noh Si-hwan (170,674 votes). Noh Si-hwan, who was MVP in July, hit 8 home runs in August.
Cuevas achieved overwhelming results in the month of August. He pitched 7 or more innings in all 5 games in which he appeared, recording a quality start plus (7 or more innings as a starter and 3 or fewer earned runs pitched). He allowed only two earned runs in 36 innings pitched, giving him an earned run average of just 0.50. With Cuevas taking center stage in the starting lineup, Katie was able to move up to second place.바카라사이트
Cuevas wore the Katy uniform again in early June. He, who has played for Katy since 2019, was released mid-season due to an elbow injury in May last year. Bo Schulser, who was recruited by Katy this year, was underperforming, so he was re-recruited by Katy. Since then, he has made 14 starts and has 8 wins, no losses, and an ERA of 3.09. If you record 2 or more wins without a loss, it is worth aiming for the 100% win rate award (based on pitchers with 10 or more wins).
Meanwhile, August monthly MVP Cuevas will be paid a prize of 2 million won.
