The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed South Korean player Hyeseong Kim to a three-year, $12.5 million contract, reflecting their commitment to international talent. Kim, who has eight seasons of experience in the KBO and won three Fielding Awards, aims to follow in the footsteps of successful Korean players with the team. His connection with Tommy Edman and prior matchups against the Dodgers during the World Baseball Classic ease his transition. Kim is eager to contribute and compete for a second base spot, emphasizing the Dodgers' international reputation and potential for championship success as motives for his signing.
Kim cited the Dodgers' international history and the chance to win a World Series as key reasons behind his decision to join the team.
It was my favorite team growing up and obviously it's the best team in the world, Kim said.
