Each major league club is raising the curtain on spring training all at once.

The San Francisco Giants, who failed to play in the postseason for three consecutive years last year, will also convene catchers and fielders on the 13th and 18th, respectively, in Scottsdale, Arizona.

San Francisco plans to provide fans with an autumn baseball stage this year. I spent the offseason busier than any other team. FA such as Corbyn Burns and Sasaki Loki could not be caught, but they filled the gaps in their own offense and defense. Willie Adames ($182 million for seven years) and Justin Verlander ($15 million for one year) were recruited to strengthen offense and defense.




However, it is still not enough to face NL West rivals the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres and Arizona Diamondbacks. It is imperative to revive Lee Jung-hoo, who failed to properly play his debut season last year due to a shoulder injury.

Local media also cite Lee Jung-hoo as the most necessary condition for San Francisco's revival.

On the 11th, MLB.com said of San Francisco in an article titled `Spring Training Number One Issue of Each Club' Could Lee Jung-hoo Rebound?He brought up the subject of '.

Journalist Maria Guardado, who wrote the article, said, "'Lee Jung-hoo was the best FA the Giants signed (six years and $113 million) in the offseason last year.' But he ended the season with a right shoulder injury in the 37th game in May.'

Then 'Lee Jung-hoo can participate in spring training normally and work in perfect physical condition. He will take center field and take the lead-off position, and the Giants still believe that he will be active with his excellent contact technology, and that the Giants will use his internal resources to perform better than last year. If Lee Jung-hoo explodes, the opportunity to compete in the Western District in 2025 will be strengthened,' he expressed expectations.

Lee Jung-hoo injured his left shoulder while playing defense in the top of the first inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Oracle Park on May 13 last year. As soon as he stretched his glove to catch Jaymer Candelario's fly deep in the right-center field, he hit his left shoulder against the fence.




Until then, he had a batting average of 0.262 (38 hits in 145 at-bats), two homers, eight RBIs, 15 runs, 10 walks, two steals, and an OPS of 0.641. Although the sample was small, it was regrettable that it was a time when they were adjusting to some extent to the major leagues. San Francisco, which confirmed Lee Jung-hoo's possibility, is likely to leave the leadoff position to Lee Jung-hoo again this year. Adames is the most likely hitter, and the total ransom of $295 million (about 428.3 billion won) table setter will be at the forefront of the attack. This is why Lee Jung-hoo should be revived.

Earlier on the 7th, Yahoo Sports mentioned Lee Jung-hoo for the eighth time in a corner titled 「20 players who can return from injury and change teams」.

The media reported that `Lee Jung-hoo is the main variable if the Giants want to compete realistically in the tight NL West Division,' adding that the Giants could have recovered the price early if not for the injury from KBO star Lee Jung-hoo, who spent a large amount of money in the offseason last year. Elite-level contact skills began to adapt to ML, and their defense was quite compliance. However, he evaluated that he lacked stolen bases and long balls.

With franchise legend Buster Posey (president) taking the helm of the club, Lee Jung-hoo has to return from a major surgery and keep his promise as an above-average center fielder. Don't feel pressured.

MLB.com , which cited Lee Jung-hoo as San Francisco's No. 1 issue in spring training, mentioned Shohei Ohtani for the Dodgers, starting rotation for Arizona, additional power reinforcement for San Diego, and Chris Bryant for the Colorado Rockies.
