Kim is essentially a prospect 3 years of guaranteed control with 2+ years. This just shows how much depth the dodgers have

[@reno-san87]

Little did you know that Hye-Seong Kim actually called Ohtani (yes he does have Korean friends) to find out more about the Dodgers organization in regards to transition to the MLB, and their track record for player development/success. He saw how beneficial year 1 was for Ohtani and Yamamoto and how the overall fit made sense from a competitive aspect and cultural comfort level all while becoming a better player. The Dodgers are fans to many international countries and Korea is right up there with Japan. A big market with the most DEDICATED fanbase that go HARDER than any other franchise at home or on the road win or lose. The best well ran organization that hasn't missed a postseason since 2012, have made 5 WS appearances in the last 8 years, and won 2 (really 3 - 2017) in that span. They've put themselves in a position to not only be successful but contenders for the foreseeable future, and their core of superstars are locked up for the rest of their MLB careers. To be apart of a locker room full of selfless DAWGS with no EGOS, who play the game the right way and for each other. Hell, sign me up right tf now!! 😂😂😂

[@alphafann]

6:46 He looks pretty fast. I think Dodgers have enough powers, so it's a good to have a defensive util and fast player in the lineup.

[@GARYGUYTON-c7i]

Seems like he could be a great contact hitter, with a high OBP, scoring a lot of runs (if the people behind him can hit well), and driving in a lot of runs (if the people in front of him can get on base). He could end up being a very valuable addition to the Dodgers.

As a Korean it's going to be very interesting to hear announcers trying to pronounce his name. His name sounds like Hey Sung Kim with the Y in Hey being pronounced almost not pronounced. So maybe Heh Sung Kim.

[@johndurrer7869]

He could play a big role in helping the Dodgers with their regular season extra innings issues. Teams that hit for a lot of power do not perform well in the extra innings. Base running speed and contact is what matters most with the new rules. They could bring Kim in to be the runner at second to start the 10th. Or they could use him with a runner on third less than two hours. You just need somebody that will put the ball in play in that situation and that’s what Kim does best. He can also help as a late inning defensive replacement or as a pinch runner after the seventh inning to try to extend a lead. If any player gets a walk after the seventh inning it would basically be a double after Kim pinch runs for them. He is not going to be a star but he can really help this Dodgers team with a specific need

The Gold Glove Award in Korea doesn't go to the best defensive player for a position. In Korea, the Gold Glove Award goes to the best player in the position. The vote for the best player in the position is heavily weighted towards offense (batting and base stealing). His Gold Glove for shortstop wasn't for defensive prowess. The report of him winning four KBO Gold Gloves in Wikipedia is wrong.

[@EddieHersh]

In fact, Kim had a shitty year defensively playing shortstop in 2021. In fact, he made 30 errors and doesn't have the arm to project as an every day major league shortstop at this point.

What's interesting about the Dodgers signing Hye-Soeng Kim is, it was reported he turned down a much higher guaranteed contract from the Angels. The offer was reported as five years for $28 million, though some of that offer may have been option money for the last year or two. Even if the mutual 2 year option is picked up by Kim and the Dodgers, Kim will only make a total of $22 million. A conversation Kim had with Shohei Ohtani may have convinced him to sign with the Dodgers. I guess it sucks trying to sign free agents when you only won 63 games last year and probably aren't projected to be a .500 team in 2025.

The Dodgers have such a monopoly in the east right now that he accepted less money to end up in what will likely be a non-starter role just so he could play for them.
