“It could be a real recruit.”
MLB.COM evaluated Kim Ha-sung (29), who applied for a free agent (FA) after playing in the U.S. Major League Baseball (MLB).
MLB.COM mentioned Kim Ha-sung, Shane Bieber, Walker Buehler, Tyler O’Neill, and Gleyber Torres on the 18th, saying, “It is not classified as a big fish in the FA market, but there is an FA that can expect high productivity.” MLB.COM evaluated, “There is no way that the right to nominate a rookie player will be lost when recruiting because they did not receive a qualifying offer (QO) as their original team.”
MLB.COM first explained why Kim Ha-sung is undervalued. “Kim Ha-sung injured his shoulder in August and missed the rest of the season and underwent surgery,” MLB.COM said. “Kim Ha-sung injured his shoulder in a game against the Colorado Rockies in August and underwent surgery in October. Kim Ha-sung, who is undergoing rehabilitation, is expected to return in late April or early May after the opening of the new season. MLB.COM also said, “Kim Ha-sung only had a batting average of 0.242 and a slugging percentage of 0.380, during the four 토토사이트 seasons,” adding, “He has a weakness in hitting by traditional standards.” As he has never exceeded 20 home runs, he lacks a shot.
However, MLB.COM said, “Kim Ha-sung does not show off his outstanding slugging power like Pete Alonso, but he played an excellent defense in premium positions (strikes, second basemen, etc.), adding, “He is good at running base, and he also has a pioneer eye and contact ability.” “He also has the right power to hit double-digit home runs in the season,” he said. “If you look at the WAR compared to the substitute players in the 2022-2023 Baseball League, Kim Ha-sung is not far behind Juan Soto.” Soto, considered the biggest fish in the FA market, will reach the WAR 11 of the 2022-2023 Baseball League. During the same period, Kim Ha-sung’s WAR is 10.7, which does not differ much. It means that Kim Ha-sung is a “inner player.” MLB.COM predicted, “Due to his shoulder injury, it seems difficult for Kim Ha-sung to sign a larger contract than Willy Adames, who is considered the biggest shortstop FA,” but “If Kim Ha-sung recovers to health, he can perform at a level similar to Adames.”
