Spring camp invitees Giovanni Gallegos, Eddie Rosario, David Boat, Michael Chavis and Dalton Rushing have been reallocated to minor league camp, he said.
MTR said that Kim Hye-sung entered the camp as a strong candidate for the second baseman's position. The Dodgers signed Kim Hye-sung to a three-year contract guaranteeing $12.5 million. It was a relatively small investment, but the Dodgers traded Gavin Lux to the Cincinnati Reds a few days later. This seemed to open the way for Kim Hye-sung to become the main player, explaining the background just before the spring camp.
Kim Hye-sung was a bit sluggish in the exhibition game. He went 6 for 29 with one home run and four walks in 15 games. He had a batting average of .27 on-base percentage of .33 and a slugging percentage of .310. OPS (On-base plus slugging) was only 0.613. It is also regrettable that there were only four walks while striking out 11. Kim Hye-sung has had hits in three of the last five games, but it took too long to activate.
MTR is 'Juss is clearly concerned about how Kim Hye-sung's batting will be applied in the major leagues. Aggressive issues have been raised since Kim Hye-sung was in Korea, he said.
