"I haven't seen much..." Roberts himself brought up Kim Hyesung's name. Why?

Manager Dave Roberts, who led the Los Angeles Dodgers to the top last year, mentioned Kim Hye-sung.

According to Japan's full count, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts appeared on a podcast in the U.S. on the 15th (Korea time) to talk about his plans for next season.토토사이트

Asked by the host how he would form the lineup, assuming that the season starts tomorrow, Roberts said, "Many things happen during the season as we've seen so far," before adding, "The shortstop is Mookie Betts. Michael Confoto is in left field, and Teoscar Hernandez is in right field. The players who will take over both infield corners have been clearly identified."

Roberts plans to check the players' conditions and draw up a lineup in the spring camp. "We still have time to assess the uncertainty that remains, but I feel good about Betts keeping the infield," he said, expressing confidence in Betts' use of the infield.

Kim Hye-sung's name came out when talking about the center line. "Tommy Edman will see the center fielder," Roberts said. "Kim Hye-sung will be a candidate for second baseman. I saw (Kim Hye-sung) when I visited Korea last year, but I'm looking forward to getting to know him more because I haven't seen him much."

Kim Hye-sung has not been confirmed as the main second baseman. The owner of the seat is expected to be decided through competition in the spring camp.

However, Kim had an excellent performance in March last year. The Seoul Series Special Game of the Major League World Tour was held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul in March last year. At that time, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres were scheduled to hold the opening game of the Major League in Seoul. Prior to this, practice matches took place. Kim, who used to be a member of Kiwoom, faced the San Diego Padres and Dodgers. She also posted one hit from four times at bat, and one hit from three times at bat, respectively, with one run scored. Notably, she targeted 97-mile-long fastballs by Dodgers starter Bobby Miller, and hit a huge double. Her performance was impressive enough.


Kim Hye-sung, who knocked on the door of the big league through the posting system, achieved her dream of entering the U.S. by signing a three-plus-two-year maximum of $22 million (about 32.4 billion won) with the Dodgers on the 4th.

When the contract was announced, there were more negative views of Kim Hye-sung. The Dodgers have a large number of star players, including Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman, and Kim Hye-sung was not in a good position even though he won the World Series last year.

This is because Gavin Lux, the main second baseman, is holding up, and there were many outstanding infielders such as Miguel Rojas and Chris Taylor. It is true that there were more concerns than expectations.

Things have changed, however. The Dodgers let Lux go to the Cincinnati Reds in a trade. It has been three days since the Dodgers acquired Kim. Kim's situation has improved a little due to the Dodgers' decision. However, as she still has many competitors, she should show her value in the spring camp.

Kim Hye-sung was so happy to receive an offer from the Dodgers on her way to the country on the 14th. In fact, it wasn't in the article, but the Dodgers contacted me first after it was posted. "I'm grateful for that," he said. "Even if you go to a team other than the Dodgers, it doesn't mean you don't compete. No matter what team you go to, I think you have to compete in the first year. Still, I don't regret it because I decided that I wanted to establish a position in the Dodgers through good competition."

Kim's first goal is to enter the opening entry. Attention is focusing on whether Kim will be able to achieve her first goal.
