WOWZA, dude i am mega impressed, the sheer amount of new and intriguing info u were able to organize rlly well is HELLA impressive, absolute W video bro. IM ABSOLUTELY HYPED FOR JUNG HOO LEE!!
Spring training is over now (save 2 exhibition games) so here are his stats: 29 ABs .414 AVG .485 OBP .586 SLG For a 1.071 OPS!! JHL, being our starting center fielder, got a lot of at bats against really good pitchers (Unlike players who come in later, after the good pitchers are pulled). I’m so excited to watch him play.
I was following his spring while putting this together and it seemed like he got his 2 hits every time he was in the lineup. Super intriguing considering he’s leading off these games and doesn’t get to watch anyone else’s at bats or get their input before he’s up. Also great to hear he’s facing good pitching. Crazy how good he’s been in his first spring vs a guy like Ohtani who struggled hard 👀 Thank you for watching!
I dont think people take the fact/know/realize he wont be against a shift anymore serious enough. Sure some MLB pitching to adjust to, but if he can hit 55% of hits with 3 infielders on right side. Then I have some confidence he'll come around to hitting at 2 on right side with lefty speed to beat out some infield hits.
Lot of understandable doubt from the Giants fans in the comments, but I think he will be prove to be a good signing. Maybe too early to call him the next Ichiro, but his production might look similar to Masataka Yoshida's last season.
Take a look at Kim Do Yeong from KIA. has a 300/400/600 season so far and as of 9/20 he is 3 HR and 1 SB short of a 40/40 season. Took 2nd in the HRD this season. Oh yeah... He turns 21 on October 2nd....
@@llamabaseball Yeah, I really don't know why there's not more buzz around him. He's probably the biggest star in the KBO right now. I honestly feel if he were in the US, he'd be the consensus #1 overall prospect.
@@llamabaseball someone else from Asia that isn't getting much love in the States is Chusei Mannami. I find it much easier to find content on npb players by searching their names in Japanese: 万波 中正 . He has the best OF arm in the world and it's not even a competition. Most DRS among OFers in Japan since the start of 2023. His bat is solid, but not necessarily anything to write home about. But that cannon arm. It turns doubles to singles. It makes a runner on 2B NOT in scoring position on a ball hit to RF. I am constantly trying to spread the word on Mannami, and most people that check out his 2023 gold glove highlights end up slack jawed and amazed. You'll probably say something like "holy crap" at least a few times....
Overpay? 100 million for 6 years for a player his caliber is a total steal. Jealousy is a disease. Whoever said it was an over pay knows nothing about baseball.
He has one. He doesn’t have a gambling addiction like Ohtani tho so he won’t be making his interpreter his fall guy. Lee also acts like an adult. Ohtani acts like he is still on his mom’s milk. And it’s beyond weird.

Thank you for watching!
I'm a huge believer in this guy! Anyone that wears 51 has my respect, and watching him play shows me he has the potential to live up to it.
Hyped for his debut today !!
The video was very informative! Thank You! keep making videos like that of the international player!
Thank you very much! I will be sure to
Great vid, Brother. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for watching !
Sf Giants: we have Ichiro at the Bay

Cool footage, would love to see a game in Korea
Japan would be way cooler. Their baseball games look insane.
I need to learn his chant!
Would be so fire if they got behind him at oracle park like San Diego has done with Kim
Fire

Great video! I drafted him in the 9th round of my fantasy league
Thank you! Hope he adjusts fast and that works out lol
2:31 that's insane

@@llamabaseball It also took to nearly 70 games before he hit into his 3rd GIDP.

@@armychowmein8021 Is Kim Do-Yoeng's defense a real concern? The steals make me assume he's athletic so are all the errors just a lack of polish ?

Completely agree, maybe not in year 1 but this deal will look like a bargain by year 2 or 3, just as Kim’s does (but he’s a bit more of a steal)
Let’s hope he doesn’t need a 24 hour interpreter.
He has one. He doesn’t have a gambling addiction like Ohtani tho so he won’t be making his interpreter his fall guy. Lee also acts like an adult. Ohtani acts like he is still on his mom’s milk. And it’s beyond weird.
Great dude and not illegal gambling !
Does he like gambling?
lol amazing.
Gambling is highly illegal in South Korea. If you get caught, you’ll go to jail.
Na no thanks
SF likes to burn money!
