Doosan Bears prospect Kim Dae-han has his second chance of the season.

Doosan registered Kim Dae-han in the first division ahead of the 2025 KBO League Hanwha Eagles match in Jamsil on the 23rd. Kim Dae-han will start right away as the ninth hitter and left fielder. Doosan called up starting pitcher Choi Min-seok along with Kim Dae-han. Infielder Kim Dong-joon and outfielder Choo Jae-hyun went down to the second division.

Kim Dae-han has been tagged as a prospect for seven years. He is the first outfielder of the 2019 rookie draft. It was expected to be a five-tool player with fast feet, strong shoulders, and strong punch power. However, he failed to burst his potential in the first team. He hit only 0.185 with seven home runs from 331 at-bats in 176 games in the first team.




Kim Dae-han opened in the second division because of the injury he suffered in this year's spring camp. Kim Dae-han was called up to the first team on May 30. He remained at .200 batting average of 25 at-bats in 12 games and 0.200 on-base percentage. After about two weeks, he went back down to the second team.

Acting Doosan manager Cho Sung-hwan was reported to have improved a lot in the second division. I posted it because I wanted to see it for myself."

Kim Dae-han hit .314 in the last 10 games in the Futures League.




Acting president Cho Sung-hwan said, `He has enough potential. Still, the first team is cool-headed. If he fails to show the results, he has no choice but to give a place to the player who showed the results in the end," he said, stressing that Kim Dae-han also has to prove it with results.

Acting President Cho Sung-hwan compared Kim Dong-joon, who was canceled that day.

Acting Cho Sung-hwan said, `Kim Dong-joon's pattern of being beaten in the first team was almost the same. With such a look, it was judged that it was difficult for us to expect right away in the first team. Kim Dae-han will see it as the same standard. We will check the pattern that the results were not good in the first team before and how different Kim Dae-han is now."




In fact, Doosan's left field position is Muju Gongsan. Kim Min-seok, Choo Jae-hyun, Kim Dong-joon and Kim Dae-han were all given a chance, but no one was able to clearly catch them. Veteran Kim Jae-hwan, who has to stand as a designated hitter, is going out of left field defense.

Acting Cho Sung-hwan said, `In the past, Kim Dae-han had high expectations, so I felt a lot of pressure. In that sense, I think I have matured a lot now. In the end, he expected that he had no choice but to produce results.
