Kim Hye-sung dramatically signed a contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers on the last day of the posting and succeeded in entering the Major League.
Fabian Ardaya, a reporter for the U.S. local media 'The Athletic', signed a three-year guarantee of $12.5 million (about 18.4 billion won) with the Dodgers on his SNS on the 4th (Korea time). Options for 2028 and 2029 were included. Kim Hye-sung's trip to the Dodgers began to be reported, writing, `You can get up to $22 million.' Other media also reported related news. And the Dodgers also officially announced a three-year, $12.5 million contract with two-year team options added.
The Dodgers won the World Series last year. He recruited MVP Shohei Ohtani and won the World Series with a number of stars such as Mukibets and Freddie Freeman.
Ohtani welcomed Kim to join the team by writing "Welcome Friend" in Korean while posting Kim Hye-sung's transfer post to the Dodgers on his SNS.
It's simply a huge hit. Until a day ago, there was no news of the contract, so it was true that I was more worried than expected. The contract had to be announced by 7 a.m. on the 4th (Korea time).
There were many rumors. At the beginning of the post, the Seattle Mariners emerged as a leading destination, but recently, there was a lot of talk about the San Diego Padres, which took Kim Ha-sung. In addition, the Los Angeles Angels, Cincinnati Reds, and Toronto Blue Jays were also mentioned as teams seeking Kim Hye-sung. But there was little talk about the Dodgers.
It is known that Kim Hye-sung is considering the offer of two or three teams until the end. It is true that you can choose, but it is known that you are in a situation where you are debating which choice can be more beneficial under the high conditions, not under the good conditions 'happy concerns'. The team Kim Hye-sung chose was the Dodgers.
Kim Hye-sung made his debut with the Kiwoom Heroes in 2017 and recorded a batting average of 340, 1043 hits, 37 homers, 386 RBIs, 591 runs on-base percentage of 0.364 slugging percentage in 953 games.
