Kim Ha-seong ( San Diego Padres), who became the first Asian infielder to win the Gold Glove Award, was once again embroiled in trade rumors in the United States. This can be interpreted to mean that Kim Ha-seong’s value is high. 메이저 토토사이트

American media Yard Barker reported on the 26th (Korean time) that "San Diego Padres may consider trading Kim Ha-seong at an appropriate price."

The media explained, “Ha-seong Kim had a very solid time with the San Diego Padres in the 2023 season. The San Diego club is expecting even more productivity from Ha-seong Kim next season.”

He then claimed, “Currently, in a situation where Kim Ha-seong’s value is high, San Diego is likely to trade Kim Ha-seong based on his good performance this season.”

Yard Barker quoted The Athletic, another American media outlet, saying, "According to Jim Bowden, the Padres could consider moving Ha-Sung Kim this offseason if they receive a suitable deal for him." “Look into moving Kim this offseason, if they are offered the right deal,” he emphasized.

Ha-Seong Kim had the best year this season. Above all, he proved his true worth by becoming the first Asian infielder to win the Major League Gold Glove. Ha-seong Kim was nominated in two categories, the second baseman category and the utility category. In the second baseman category, he was defeated by Nico Horner (Chicago Cubs) and did not receive the award, but in the end, he was nominated for the award in the utility category by Mookie Betts (LA Dodgers) and Tommy Ed. He was selected as the final recipient of the honor, beating Mun (St. Louis Cardinals).

The Gold Glove is one of the most prestigious awards in the Major League and was established in 1957. Above all, the Gold Glove is an award that focuses on 'defense' rather than 'offense', and a total of 20 best defenders are selected for each position in the two major leagues. Awards are given in a total of 10 categories, including pitcher, catcher, first baseman, second baseman, third baseman, shortstop, left fielder, center fielder, right fielder, and utility, and Ha-seong Kim was selected as the winner in the utility category for being able to play all positions equally. It was the second time in 13 years that an Asian player won the Major League Gold Glove, after 'living legend' Ichiro Suzuki (Japan, 2001-2010).

Ha-seong Kim played 856⅔ innings in 106 games (98 starts) as a second baseman, 253⅓ innings in 32 games (29 starts) as a third baseman, and 153⅓ innings in 20 games (16 starts) as a shortstop. He played a total of 1263⅓ defensive innings in three positions, primarily as second base. However, he showed off his stable defense by playing shortstop or third base depending on whether Xander Bo Gaerts or Manny Machado started. In addition, he earned a lot of love from San Diego fans with his perfect play in attack and base running.

Yard Barker introduced, “In the 2023 season, Ha-seong Kim had a batting average of 0.260, 17 home runs, and 60 RBIs. He also succeeded in stealing 38 bases.” Ha-seong Kim had a career-high season this year, in his third year in the major leagues, playing in 152 games and posting 140 hits and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.749. Home runs, RBIs, and stolen bases were all his personal single-season records.

This is not the first time Ha-seong Kim has been embroiled in trade rumors. On the 14th, MLB Trade Rumors, which covers major league (MLB) transfer news, included Ha-seong Kim when mentioning 25 players likely to be traded during this off-season. MLB Trade Rumors said, “In order for San Diego to retain Juan Soto, they must trade Trent Grisham and Kim Ha-seong to reduce the entire team’s annual salary.”

Choi Ji-man's advice to 'prospective big leaguers': "If you adapt well, your grades will follow

'Overseas' Choi Ji-man had time to interact with domestic fans for the first time in a long time.

Choi Ji-man participated in the Yang Jun-hyuk Baseball Foundation 2023 Hope Plus Charity Baseball Tournament held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 26th and completed a schedule of fan signing events and games.

Choi Ji-man, who met with reporters after the pre-event, said, "I've seen everyone once or twice and they are like seniors and juniors, so it's nice to see them like this (laughter). It hasn't been long since I came to Korea. I'm adjusting to jet lag, and I started exercising right away. (Instep) rehabilitation for treatment purposes. “I’m doing it, and I’ll do that until November, and I think I’ll start doing a lot of weight training in earnest starting in December,” he said.

Ji-Man Choi suffered an injury to his right foot during a rehabilitation game last September. He was initially reported to have suffered a 'fracture', but the injury was not that serious. However, the aftermath continues. Choi Ji-man explained, "The area where the ball was hit is still not good. He is undergoing rehabilitation so that his physical condition can improve further."

He added, "Every year when I come to Korea, I start rehabilitation first. Since I've had so many surgeries, I check all of those things once, and now I'm paying attention to my core and shoulders as a whole." 먹튀검증

Choi Ji-man, who was traded from the Tampa Bay Rays to the Pittsburgh Pirates after last season, moved to another team through another trade during this season and wore the San Diego Padres uniform. There were injuries and setbacks along the way. Literally, 2023 was an ‘eventful’ year for Choi Ji-man. This season's big league performance is 17 hits in 104 at-bats in 39 games, a batting average of 0.163, 6 home runs, 13 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.624.

Choi Ji-man looked back on the season, saying, "It was difficult. It must have been difficult not only for me but also for the people who supported me," and "But I think that good things will happen again with this opportunity, and I have a positive mind."

In particular, Choi Ji-man was very disappointed as he could not participate in the 2023 World Baseball Classic (WBC) held ahead of this season. He expressed regret, saying, "I have a lot to say, but I can't say it all. That's why I tried to make the team understand, but I think we could have gone in a better direction if we both gave in a little bit."

He did not forget to give advice to outfielder Lee Jeong-hoo, who is about to enter the posting system (private competitive bidding). Choi Ji-man said, “He is a very good player. To be honest, I haven’t seen much in real life, so I am cautious about saying whether he will succeed or not, and it will also be a burden for the players. (Kim) Ha-seong also had a difficult time in his first and second years, but in the long run, he “I think I can. I believe that if I look at it that way, I will definitely succeed. I think that if I adapt to the league faster than if I get good results in the first year, my grades will naturally follow,” he said.

Choi Ji-man, who also took care of juniors dreaming of appearing on the American stage, said, "The United States is an unfamiliar place, so I think it's most important to approach first, and in the case of Ha-seong, didn't he become very close with Manny Machado? I think we need to be able to approach him quickly." “I do it,” he said.

Choi Ji-man also spoke with left-handed pitcher Dietrick Enns, who was included in the list of candidates for recruiting foreign pitchers for the LG Twins this winter. In the past, the two have memories of eating together during their time in Tampa Bay. While there is a possibility that Ens, who played for the Seibu Lions of the Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) this year, will head to the Korean stage, LG has said that nothing has been confirmed yet.

Choi Ji-man said, "I contacted Ens the day before yesterday (24th). Since then, I've been saying a lot that I wish I could go to Korea, and he's a really good player. In a way, that player didn't succeed in the big league because he didn't get the opportunity. If he comes to Korea, “Wouldn’t that be too good?” he said. “NS asked me a lot of questions. I told them that it would be okay to just get 20 wins without feeling pressured, and they laughed. (LG) is a good team, and I told them that the players and coach are also good.”

RYU, who chose to stay in the ML instead of returning to Hanwha, returns to the Dodgers after 5 year

Will "Korean Monster" Ryu Hyun-jin, who has qualified as a free agent (FA), wear the LA Dodgers uniform for the first time in five years?

It's a Dodgers news story"Jus Nation" emphasized the need to strengthen the starting lineup and mentioned Ryu Hyun-jin as a candidate for recruitment. The media reported on the 20th (Korea time), "What the Dodgers need the most is a starting pitcher," and "It is expected to strengthen the starting lineup in the free agent (FA) market."

"The Dodgers Nation" selected Ryu Hyun-jin, Jack Flaherty, Lucas Giolito, Corey Kluber, Seth Lugo, and Michael Wacha as candidates for recruitment, predicting, "Which of these players will help the starting lineup." 스포츠토토사이트

Ryu Hyun-jin played for the Dodgers for six years starting in 2013, and played in a total of 126 games, recording 54 wins and 33 losses with a 2.98 ERA. He was part of the Dodgers' starting lineup, winning 14 games in 2013, 2014 and 2019.

The media outlet said of Ryu, "Many fans will want to see him reunited. Ryu Hyun-jin received a lot of love from his fans when he played for the Dodgers. He can play as a reliable left-handed pitcher in the starting lineup." It added, "After undergoing rehabilitation after undergoing elbow ligament surgery, he played in only 11 games this season but posted a 3.46 ERA."

However, it was predicted that multi-year contracts, as in the past, would be difficult. His age, which turns 37 next year, and his history of frequent injuries and surgeries were mentioned as factors lowering the possibility of a multi-year contract.

The LA Times said, "After signing a four-year contract with Toronto, Ryu Hyun-jin suffered repeated injuries and poor pitching. He became a free agent again as time went by, but he is expected to receive a one-year contract worth $10 million (approximately 13 billion won) next season." predicted.

Ryu Hyun-jin, who visited Jamsil Stadium, where Game 5 of the Korean Series was held on the 13th, said, "First, I think I will have to listen to proposals from various clubs. I think we will hear some news around mid-December. For now, I am waiting. I am not sure yet." He saved his words.

Atlanta, who missed out by surprise, is all-in on FA Gray, 'No. 1 recruit

The Atlanta Braves, who are looking to recruit a solid starting pitcher in this free agent market, now appear to be going all-in on Sonny Gray.

MLBcom, the official Major League Baseball website, mentioned on the 20th (Korean time) that Atlanta is the team most wanting to recruit Gray.

This is because Aaron Nola has already disappeared from the market. Nola signed a 7-year, $172 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies on the 20th.

Nola is a starting pitcher who is evaluated better than Gray in this free agent market. Atlanta made recruiting Nola a top priority, but ultimately lost to Philadelphia.

In response, Atlanta now turned its eyes toward Gray. Gray is realistically evaluated as the best starting pitcher that Atlanta can recruit.

This is also the reason why it is difficult for Atlanta to beat other clubs in the competition to recruit Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Blake Snell .

Also, Atlanta is a team that absolutely needs to strengthen its starting lineup this winter. Compared to the all-time great batting lineup, the starting lineup is weak. A clear ace is needed. 먹튀검증

Gray, in his 11th year in the major leagues, pitched 184 innings in 32 games this season, recording 8 wins, 8 losses, and an ERA of 2.79. 183 strikeouts.

Except for the 2018 season, he has shown relatively consistent and stable performance, so we can expect top pitching content for the next 3 to 4 years.

Gray is expected to sign a four-year contract worth up to $90 million. Attention is being paid to whether Atlanta, which lost Nola, will succeed in recruiting Gray.
