“I asked about Lee Jung-hoo”.
On the 27th, a scout from the popular Major League Baseball team San Francisco appeared at the Gwangju-Kia Champions Field and attracted attention. It was the 10th game between the Kiwoom Heroes and the KIA Tigers.
Naturally, they came to observe Lee Jung-hoo. Lee Jung-hoo is eligible to go overseas after this season. He will try to reach the major leagues through the posting system카지노.
He has already signed an agent contract with Scott Boras. The local evaluation of Lee is reportedly over. There are many clubs that want him, so it will be interesting to see if there will be a competition and how big the contract will be.
He struggled at the beginning of this season, but in June alone, he went on a super fast rise, hitting 3.9 pounds, 2 ounces. He’s also ranked among the top prospects in the majors. It’s no wonder San Francisco is interested.
“He’s a San Francisco scout. I also visited the spring training camp in Scottsdale, USA. I met with the club representative today and asked some questions about Lee Jung-hoo. It’s my first time visiting Korea.” Kiwoom did not disclose the specific questions.
Lee is not the only one. Kiwoom also has another hard-throwing pitcher, Ahn Woo-jin, who could make it to the major leagues in the future. With a fastball that can reach up to 160 kilometres, he has dominated the KBO this year. Ahn is scheduled to start against KIA on the 28th.
Infielder Kim Hye-sung is also attracting interest from major league clubs. Given the success of Kiwoom infielders Kang Jeong-ho and Kim Ha-seong in the major leagues, it is expected that Kim will follow suit.
In the end, Kiwoom’s talented trio is sure to make it to the major leagues, it’s just a matter of when and in what order. The Kiwoom club is actively pushing them. It will be interesting to see what San Francisco officials have to say.
