"There's a lot of excitement around him," manager Bob Melvin said. "He embraces it. We're embracing it. I've had a ton of high-profile Japanese players over the course of my career and I had Ha-Seong Kim in San Diego. To me, it's glaring how quickly it seems like (Lee) has fit in and how comfortable he has been. "He's joking around with the guys. It usually takes a while to kind of feel your way around and fit in, but he has got the type of personality that makes it easy on you to have conversations with him. Everything has been great so far."
The offseason's biggest addition already is wildly popular in South Korea, and Giants officials, coaches, and players who have interacted with him in recent days believe it won't be long before San Francisco feels the same way.
