However, as Kim Hye-sung's main position and second baseman Lux are traded, it is good news for Kim Hye-sung. Of course, Lux's trade does not guarantee Kim Hye-sung's entry into the starting lineup, but it is certain that he can enter the spring camp in a more comfortable state. Even if the main position is given to other existing players, the possibility of entering the big league entry will increase even if it is a backup.
Lux is a prospect who was drafted first by the Dodgers in 2016. Since he slowed down due to injury, he had a batting average of 251, 10 homers and 50 RBIs last season, helping Dodgers win the World Series as its second baseman.
