Kiwoom Heroes ace An Woo-jin has been placed on the 10-day injured list with right biceps tendinitis after making only six starts this season. An felt discomfort in his right biceps following his most recent outing against the Hanwha Eagles on May 14. The team announced the diagnosis on Monday and said the injury is not serious.

An, 26, had a delayed start to the 2026 season because of a shoulder injury. He pitched one inning in his April 12 debut, two innings on April 18, and three innings on April 24 before increasing his workload in May. 70 ERA over 20 innings this season with 27 strikeouts and five walks.

6 kilometers per hour, the highest among pitchers with at least 20 innings pitched. 11 ERA in 2022. Elbow surgery ended his 2023 season, and he completed military service while recovering. A shoulder injury in August 2025 kept him out until April this year.

The Heroes said An has no issues with his shoulder or elbow. He will receive treatment and continue training while on the injured list. The team will determine his return timeline after monitoring his progress.
