  35.  
  36.  
  37. <p>With the publication of Kiwoom Heroes Lee Jung-hoo&#8217;s (25) post, the birth of Kiwoom&#8217;s fourth major leaguer is now in sight.</p>
  38.  
  39.  
  40.  
  41. <p>On December 4, Kiwoom announced, &#8220;Lee Jung-hoo&#8217;s major league posting notice will be made on December 4 (US Eastern Time). Accordingly, from the day after the posting notice, we will enter into full-scale negotiations with 30 major league clubs who wish to sign Lee Jung-hoo for 30 days,&#8221; the company said.</p>
  42.  
  43.  
  44.  
  45. <p>Lee Jung-hoo is a franchise star who joined Kiwoom as the first overall pick in the 2017 rookie draft. In 884 career KBO games, Lee has established himself as one of the best hitters in South Korea, batting .344 (3476-for-1181) with 65 home runs, 515 RBIs and an OPS of .898.</p>
  46.  
  47.  
  48.  
  49. <p>After a career-high season last season, when he batted .349 (9-for-553) with 23 home runs, 113 RBIs and a .996 OPS in 142 games, Lee won five batting titles (batting average, slugging percentage, on-base percentage, RBIs and runs scored) and was named league MVP. This year, he underwent surgery for an ankle injury that ended his season early, but he still managed to put together a solid 86-game season, batting 3-for-105 (330 at-bats) with six home runs, 45 RBIs, and an .861 OPS.</p>
  50.  
  51.  
  52.  
  53. <h2>Kiwoom has a lot of experience in promoting players to the major leagues through posts.</h2>
  54.  
  55.  
  56.  
  57. <p>Before Lee, Kang Jeong-ho, Park Byung-ho (KT), and Kim Ha-seong (San Diego) reached the major leagues, inspiring younger players to dream of a bigger stage.</p>
  58.  
  59.  
  60.  
  61. <p>Kang Jeong-ho, a giant shortstop with a career batting average of .973 with 139 home runs, 545 RBIs, and an OPS of .973 in 902 games (3070 hits, 916 runs) in the KBO, became the first player in KIUM history to reach the major leagues by posting in December 2014. He was also the first KBO player to be designated for assignment. At the time, the posting was conducted through a closed competitive bidding system, and Pittsburgh secured the right to negotiate by bidding $5 million (approx. KRW 6.5 billion) <a href="https://www.casinositeguide.com/" title="온라인카지노">온라인카지노</a> for the posting fee and signed Kang to a four-year, $11 million (approx. KRW 14.4 billion) contract. Kang showed promise in the major leagues, batting .297 with 46 home runs, 144 RBIs and a .796 OPS in 917 games, but injuries and a DUI arrest ended his career.</p>
  62.  
  63.  
  64.  
  65. <p>After reaching his full potential in Kiwoom, Park Byung-ho became one of South Korea&#8217;s leading home run hitters, batting .281 with 210 homers, 604 RBIs, and a .951 OPS in 868 games (2,748 hits, 773 runs) until 2015, when he tried out for the major leagues. Like Kang, Byung-ho Park went through a sealed competitive bidding process, which set a new record for the highest posting fee ever for a Yankee at $12.85 million. Minnesota won the right to negotiate, and Park signed a four-year, $12.2 million contract. However, Park batted just 1-for-9 with 12 home runs, 24 RBIs and an OPS of .684 in 62 games (215-for-41) in the majors, and returned to South Korea after the 2017 season after mutually agreeing to terminate his contract.</p>
  66.  
  67.  
  68.  
  69. <h2>Kim has had one of the most successful careers of any major league player from Kiwoom. </h2>
  70.  
  71.  
  72.  
  73. <p>In 891 career KBO games (3,195-for-940) with a .921 batting average, 133 home runs, 575 RBIs, and a .921 OPS, Kim began posting in a revamped fashion after the 2020 season. He signed a four-year, $28 million guaranteed contract with San Diego in January 2021, and Kiwoom received $5.25 million in posting money per the rules.</p>
  74.  
  75.  
  76.  
  77. <p>In 419 career games in the majors, Kim has batted .245 (1322-for-324) with 36 home runs, 153 RBIs and a .708 OPS, while also drawing attention for his stellar defense. Last year, he was a finalist for the National League Gold Glove at shortstop, and this year, after being named a finalist for both second base and utility, he won the Gold Glove for utility.</p>
  78.  
  79.  
  80.  
  81. <p>Now that he has officially entered negotiations, Lee will become Kiwoom&#8217;s fourth major leaguer. If he signs a $50 million (approx. KRW 65.3 billion) contract, as expected by American media, he could become the highest-paid pitcher in KBO history. The current record is six years and $36 million (approximately 47 billion won), which was set by Ryu Hyun-jin when he signed with the Dodgers in December 2012.</p>
  82.  
  83.  
  84.  
  85. <h2>Kiwoom has a long list of players who could challenge for the major leagues after Lee. </h2>
  86.  
  87.  
  88.  
  89. <p>Right now, second baseman Kim Hye-sung has announced his intention to try out for the major leagues after the season ends next year. Reliever Cho Sang-woo, who will return from military service as a social service worker on the 23rd of this month, will also be able to post if he plays next season. Ace Ahn Woo-jin, who underwent Tommy John surgery (elbow ligament splicing) last September and is scheduled to begin his military service as a social service worker on Sept. 18, is also a talent that the major leagues are eyeing and could be posted as early as 2028 after completing the season.</p>
  90.  
  91.  
  92.  
  93. <p>Following in the footsteps of Kang Jeong-ho, Park Byung-ho, and Kim Ha-seong, fans are eager to see if Lee can successfully reach the major leagues and create a wider path for younger players.</p><p>The post <a href="https://holyangel.one/2023/12/ml-contract-first-read-lee-jung-hoo-kiwooms-4th-major-leaguer/">ML contract first read’ Lee Jung-hoo, Kiwoom’s 4th major leaguer</a> first appeared on <a href="https://holyangel.one">holyangel.one</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  110.  
  111.  
  112. <p>Mookie Betts (Los Angeles Dodgers), a multi-position player with a natural athleticism, will be playing second base full-time next year. Second base is no stranger to Betts. A former second baseman, Betts was converted to the outfield after losing second base to Dustin Pedroia during his time with the Boston Red Sox.</p>
  113.  
  114.  
  115.  
  116. <p>On May 5, Yahoo Sports reported, &#8220;Betts will no longer alternate between second base and right field. He will be the Dodgers&#8217; full-time second baseman next year.&#8221;</p>
  117.  
  118.  
  119.  
  120. <p>&#8220;Betts played 77 games in right field this season, 62 at second base and 12 at shortstop. If the opposing starter is a right-handed pitcher, he will start in right field, but after meeting with manager Dave Roberts, he will play second base based on preference and age.&#8221;</p>
  121.  
  122.  
  123.  
  124. <p>&#8220;Roberts also confirmed on MLB Network that Betts will be the starting second baseman next year,&#8221; Yahoo Sports reported.</p>
  125.  
  126.  
  127.  
  128. <p>&#8220;Betts batted .307 with 39 homers and 107 RBIs to help the Dodgers win the National League West for the second straight season and finish second in National League MVP voting behind Ronald Acuna Jr.</p>
  129.  
  130.  
  131.  
  132. <h2>In Betts&#8217; place, left-hander Jason Heyward will start in right field.</h2>
  133.  
  134.  
  135.  
  136. <p>Roberts will use Heyward as the starting right fielder when facing a right-handed starter. <a href="http://www.mttotosite.com/" title="안전놀이터 ">안전놀이터 </a>Roberts is looking for a starting right fielder to play when facing a lefty.</p>
  137.  
  138.  
  139.  
  140. <p>&#8220;If Betts can play 160-plus games at second base, he&#8217;ll be a great addition to the team,&#8221; the outlet said.</p>
  141.  
  142.  
  143.  
  144. <p>Betts, who made his big league debut with Boston in 2014, was acquired by the Dodgers in 2020 and has played in 1265 career games, batting .294 (5044-for-1,485) with 252 home runs, 756 RBI, 996 runs scored, 172 stolen bases and a .900 OPS.</p>
  145.  
  146.  
  147.  
  148. <p>Betts, who hit the iconic 20 home runs and 20 doubles for the third straight season in 2016, is a four-time American League Gold Glove outfielder and two-time Silver Slugger outfielder.</p><p>The post <a href="https://holyangel.one/2023/12/mookie-betts-will-be-playing-second-base-full-time-next-year/">Mookie Betts will be playing second base full-time next year</a> first appeared on <a href="https://holyangel.one">holyangel.one</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  164.  
  165.  
  166.  
  167. <p>Trevor Bauer, 32, a right-handed pitcher trying to return to the major leagues, seems to have hit a wall. After meeting with several major league teams, he&#8217;s been met with a cold shoulder. He has expressed a desire to play for his former team, the Cincinnati Reds, but they have said they are not interested in signing him. Cincinnati isn&#8217;t the only major league club with a similar attitude.</p>
  168.  
  169.  
  170.  
  171. <p>According to Japanese media, no clubs have mentioned Bauer so far. There is speculation that he may not be able to return to the major leagues and will be forced to play in Japan next season. &#8220;Bauer has said that a return to the major leagues is the best option, but Japan and Korea are also options, but if that doesn&#8217;t happen, Japan is the next best option.</p>
  172.  
  173.  
  174.  
  175. <p>The Yokohama BayStars removed Bauer from the disabled list last week after his one-year contract ended. If he can&#8217;t find a team in the majors, they&#8217;re going to try to sign him. <a href="https://www.casinositekim.com" title="카지노사이트킴">카지노사이트킴</a> He said he would make an offer that no other team could. This means offering something other than salary.</p>
  176.  
  177.  
  178.  
  179. <h2>After failing to find a major league team</h2>
  180.  
  181.  
  182.  
  183. <p>Bauer signed with Yokohama in March for $4 million (including incentives). That&#8217;s top-tier by Nippon Professional Baseball standards, but not by major league standards. Bauer signed a three-year, $102 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers after the 2020 season.</p>
  184.  
  185.  
  186.  
  187. <p>He is a former Cy Young Award winner with a career record of 82 wins (69 losses &#8211; 3.79 ERA). In the highly regarded Nippon Professional Baseball, he went 10-4 with a 2.76 ERA in 19 appearances this season. Despite missing time last year, he made it clear that he is competitive.</p>
  188.  
  189.  
  190.  
  191. <p>His resume and stats alone are enough to make him a contender.</p>
  192.  
  193.  
  194.  
  195. <p>Bauer is no ordinary player. In 2021, he was accused of sexual assault and served a suspension. His then-team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, decided to release him and he missed the entire season last year. During the season, he settled with the accuser financially and was cleared of any legal issues.</p>
  196.  
  197.  
  198.  
  199. <p>However, the team has to be conscious of fans who are extremely negative about Bauer. While some players have expressed sympathy for Bauer, there is a disconnect with public opinion.</p>
  200.  
  201.  
  202.  
  203. <h2>Case in point. </h2>
  204.  
  205.  
  206.  
  207. <p>SoftBank Hawks closer Roberto Osuna has given up on returning to the major leagues and is seeking a long-term contract. Osuna, a former major league saves leader, was effectively banned from the major leagues due to domestic violence issues. He played in the Mexican League before moving to Nippon Professional Baseball last season. In 49 games this year, he posted a 3-2 record, 12 shutouts, 26 saves, and a 0.92 ERA.</p>
  208.  
  209.  
  210.  
  211. <p>In 2020, with Cincinnati, he went 5-4 with a 1.73 ERA in 11 games. Bauer won the National League Cy Young Award that season, which was shortened due to COVID-19. Two of his five wins were complete games.</p>
  212.  
  213.  
  214.  
  215. <p>Bauer was recognized in Yokohama as a passionate competitor. He pitched every five or six days in the major leagues, giving every game his all. On Aug. 3 against the Hiroshima Carp, <a href="https://www.outlookindia.com/outlook-spotlight/2023%EB%85%84-11%EC%9B%94-%EB%A9%94%EC%9D%B4%EC%A0%80-%ED%86%A0%ED%86%A0%EC%82%AC%EC%9D%B4%ED%8A%B8-%EC%88%9C%EC%9C%84-%EC%B6%94%EC%B2%9C-%ED%86%A0%ED%86%A0-%EC%95%88%EC%A0%84%EB%86%80%EC%9D%B4%ED%84%B0-top15-news-332207" title="스포츠토토사이트">스포츠토토사이트</a> he threw 123 pitches into the 10th inning, allowing four hits and striking out five. In June, he went 4-0 with a 2.08 ERA in four games and was named the monthly MVP.</p>
  216.  
  217.  
  218.  
  219. <p>Bauer thanked the fans at the recent Yokohama Fan Fest with a video message.</p><p>The post <a href="https://holyangel.one/2023/12/trevor-bauer-pitcher-trying-to-return-to-the-major-leagues/">Trevor Bauer pitcher trying to return to the major leagues</a> first appeared on <a href="https://holyangel.one">holyangel.one</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  235.  
  236.  
  237.  
  238. <p>Mookie Betts (Los Angeles Dodgers), a six-time Gold Glove winner as an outfielder, will play second base next year.</p>
  239.  
  240.  
  241.  
  242. <p>&#8220;Betts will be the starting second baseman in 2024,&#8221; Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told MLB.com on Friday.</p>
  243.  
  244.  
  245.  
  246. <p>Betts, who broke into the majors in 2014, has had a stellar career in right field. His defensive prowess has been recognized with six Gold Gloves.</p>
  247.  
  248.  
  249.  
  250. <p>This year, however, Betts has filled a void in the outfield. In 2023, Betts played 107 games in right field (77 starts), 70 games at second base (62 starts), and 16 games at shortstop (12 starts).</p>
  251.  
  252.  
  253.  
  254. <p>Betts is no stranger to the infield, having played shortstop in high school and second base in the minors, <a href="https://www.casinositenet.com" title="카지노사이트넷">카지노사이트넷</a> before switching to right field in his big league debut with the Boston Red Sox when he couldn&#8217;t break through the fierce infield competition.</p>
  255.  
  256.  
  257.  
  258. <p>His athleticism made him an excellent defender in the outfield, but he reportedly had a soft spot for the infield.</p>
  259.  
  260.  
  261.  
  262. <h2>Roberts decided to move Betts to second base next season</h2>
  263.  
  264.  
  265.  
  266. <p>A position he feels more comfortable with, while reducing the strain of frequent position changes.</p>
  267.  
  268.  
  269.  
  270. <p>&#8220;Betts is a Gold Glove-winning right fielder,&#8221; Roberts said, &#8220;but if you have a good second baseman, you can play him at second and make the whole team run better.&#8221; &#8220;I could see Betts playing second base for the rest of his career (not just next year). That excites me, and most importantly, it excites Betts.&#8221;</p>
  271.  
  272.  
  273.  
  274. <p>If Betts can play solid defense at second base next year, he could compete with Ha Sung Kim (San Diego Padres) for the National League (NL) Gold Glove.</p>
  275.  
  276.  
  277.  
  278. <p>This year, Betts and Kim were both nominated for the NL Gold Glove in the utility category for their versatile defense. Kim beat out Betts for the Gold Glove.</p>
  279.  
  280.  
  281.  
  282. <p>Kim played the most games at second base this year, 106 (98 starts), while also playing 32 (29 starts) <a href="https://www.outlookindia.com/outlook-spotlight/2023%EB%85%84-11%EC%9B%94-%EC%8A%A4%ED%8F%AC%EC%B8%A0-%ED%86%A0%ED%86%A0%EC%82%AC%EC%9D%B4%ED%8A%B8-%EC%88%9C%EC%9C%84-%EB%B0%8F-%EC%B6%94%EC%B2%9C-%EC%82%AC%EC%84%A4%ED%86%A0%ED%86%A0-%EB%A8%B9%ED%8A%80%EA%B2%80%EC%A6%9D-top15-news-328577" title="온라인카지노사이트">온라인카지노사이트</a> at third base and 20 (16 starts) at shortstop. He was nominated for a Gold Glove at second base, but only won the utility award.</p><p>The post <a href="https://holyangel.one/2023/12/dodgers-lock-in-betts-as-next-years-second-baseman/">Dodgers lock in Betts as next year’s second baseman</a> first appeared on <a href="https://holyangel.one">holyangel.one</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  300.  
  301. <p>Former KBO Most Valuable Player (MVP) Eric Pedroia (NC Dinos) is expected to return to Major League Baseball (MLB) in 2023.</p>
  302.  
  303.  
  304.  
  305. <p>MLB.com&#8217;s Mark Finesand reported on Friday (Aug. 5), citing sources, that &#8220;Pedi is close to signing with an as-yet undisclosed team. It&#8217;s expected to be a two-year, $5 million-plus deal.&#8221;</p>
  306.  
  307.  
  308.  
  309. <p>If reports are to be believed, Peddy will return to MLB for a two-year deal worth more than $10 million. He made $21.5 million (about $2.84 billion) in the 2022 season with the Washington Nationals, more than doubling his salary in two years.</p>
  310.  
  311.  
  312.  
  313. <h2>The move to South Korea marks a turning point for Pedi. </h2>
  314.  
  315.  
  316.  
  317. <p>From his debut in the big leagues in 2017 to 2022, he stayed with Washington until 2023, when he partnered with NC to try his hand at the KBO.</p>
  318.  
  319.  
  320.  
  321. <p>In the first month of the season, he went 4-1 with a 0.47 ERA in six games, then went 20-6 with a 2.00 ERA in 2023. He won the pitcher&#8217;s triple crown of wins, ERA, and strikeouts (209), and set a new record for both 20 wins and 200 strikeouts in a single season.</p>
  322.  
  323.  
  324.  
  325. <p>Pedi was also named the regular season MVP.</p>
  326.  
  327.  
  328.  
  329. <p>Pedi&#8217;s dominance of the KBO league has attracted interest from the United States and Japan.</p>
  330.  
  331.  
  332.  
  333. <p>NC hoped to keep Pedi with them next year, but it&#8217;s not easy to keep him.</p>
  334.  
  335.  
  336.  
  337. <p>The KBO limits the total contract value of the three foreign players on a team to no more than $4 million<a href="https://www.safetotosite.pro/" title=" 먹튀검증 "> 먹튀검증 </a>(about 5.36 billion won). The amount increases by $100,000 for each year of service, but it&#8217;s not a lot of money.</p>
  338.  
  339.  
  340.  
  341. <p>Speaking about his future at the KBO Awards late last month, Pedi said, &#8220;I have to talk to NC, and I can talk to other teams. Whatever I decide, I&#8217;m going to put my family first.&#8221;</p><p>The post <a href="https://holyangel.one/2023/12/kbo-league-mvp-pedi-is-close-to-returning-to-the-majors/">KBO League MVP Pedi is close to returning to the majors</a> first appeared on <a href="https://holyangel.one">holyangel.one</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  452. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eric Peddie (30-NC Dinos) generously shared his secrets with opposing pitchers, including Ahn Woo-jin (24-Kiwoom Heroes), who came to him to learn the &#8220;sweeper&#8221;.</p>
  453.  
  454.  
  455.  
  456. <p>Sweepers have become a craze among KBO pitchers, but no one has ever surpassed the master.</p>
  457.  
  458.  
  459.  
  460. <p>Pedi dominated the Korean Professional Baseball League in 2023 with the sweeper, which has a slower velocity than the slider but a great side-to-side changeup.</p>
  461.  
  462.  
  463.  
  464. <p>At the 2023 KBO awards ceremony on Sunday at the Westin Chosun Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul, Peddie hoisted the shiny regular-season Most Valuable Player (MVP) trophy. Pedi received 91.9% of the vote (102 out of 111).</p>
  465.  
  466.  
  467.  
  468. <p>After departing for the U.S. on Aug. 8, Pedi arrived in Korea on the afternoon of Aug. 26 and graced the KBO Awards as the &#8220;host&#8221; of the ceremony.</p>
  469.  
  470.  
  471.  
  472. <p>Peddie completed the &#8220;Triple Crown&#8221; of wins, ERA, and strikeouts in the regular season this year with a 20-6 record, 2.00 ERA, and 209 strikeouts.</p>
  473.  
  474.  
  475.  
  476. <p>It was a feat that will go down in KBO history.</p>
  477.  
  478.  
  479.  
  480. <p>He is the fourth pitcher in history to win the Triple Crown, joining Sun Dong-yeol of the Haetae Tigers (1986, 1989, 1990, 1991), Ryu Hyun-jin of the Hanwha Eagles (2006), and Yoon Seok-min of the KIA Tigers (2011).</p>
  481.  
  482.  
  483.  
  484. <p>Pedi also reached the 20-win, 200-strikeout milestone, which has only been achieved by legendary pitchers such as Jang Myung-bu of the Sammi Superstars in 1983 (30 wins and 220 strikeouts), the late Choi Dong-won of the Lotte Giants in 1984 (27 wins and 223 strikeouts), Kim Si-jin of the Samsung Lions in 1985 (25 wins and 201 strikeouts), and Sun Dong-yeol of Hae-tae in 1986 (24 wins and 214 strikeouts).</p>
  485.  
  486.  
  487.  
  488. <p>In his final appearance of the year, the first round of the playoffs (PO) against SSG Landers, he struck out 12 batters in six innings (three hits and one run) to set the record for the most strikeouts in a PO game, one more than Sun Dong-yeol (Haetae) in Game 2 in 1989 and Chris Flexen (Doosan Bears) in Game 1 in 2020.</p>
  489.  
  490.  
  491.  
  492. <p>His totals with the NC bats were also good.</p>
  493.  
  494.  
  495.  
  496. <p>Pedi averaged 4.33 runs per game, 1.1 runs above the league average of 3.23, and tied the KBO record for fewest games with 10 wins (12) and fewest games with 15 wins (19).</p>
  497.  
  498.  
  499.  
  500. <p>Peddie played alongside Eric Thames in Major League Baseball&#8217;s Washington Nationals in 2020.</p>
  501.  
  502.  
  503.  
  504. <p>&#8220;He introduced me to the KBO and told me it was a very high level league,&#8221; says Peddie. &#8220;He introduced me to the KBO and said it was a very high level league. I was able to hear a lot of things about the KBO from him,&#8221; says Peddie, who credits Thames with being a positive influence on his trip to Korea.</p>
  505.  
  506.  
  507.  
  508. <p>Themes was NC&#8217;s first regular season MVP (2015).</p>
  509.  
  510.  
  511.  
  512. <p>Peddie became the first NC pitcher to win the regular-season MVP, and the second NC player to do so in history, joining Temes.</p>
  513.  
  514.  
  515.  
  516. <p>&#8220;My NC teammates are like brothers to me,&#8221; said Pedi on stage at the award ceremony. &#8220;When I first joined the NC in spring training in February this year, I was scared, but thanks to my teammates, I overcame it,&#8221; he said.</p>
  517.  
  518.  
  519.  
  520. <p>When NC failed to advance to the Korean Series and was eliminated in the fall stage, Pedi broke down in tears.</p>
  521.  
  522.  
  523.  
  524. <p>&#8220;I&#8217;m about to cry again,&#8221; he said at the awards ceremony, adding, &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t help NC in the postseason (due to forearm pain). That&#8217;s where the tears came from.&#8221;</p>
  525.  
  526.  
  527.  
  528. <p>Pedi attended the ceremony with his father.</p>
  529.  
  530.  
  531.  
  532. <p>After tearing up at the memory of his NC teammates, he looked at his father, who had traveled with him to the ceremony, and said, &#8220;This trophy is for you. Thank you so much,&#8221; he said, before bursting into tears again.   <a href="https://www.outlookindia.com/outlook-spotlight/년-11월-메이저-토토사이트-순위-추천-토토-안전놀이터-top15-news-332207" title="">안전놀이터</a></p>
