Lee Jeong-hoo<\/a> (25), who is aiming to advance to the Major League Baseball (MLB), boards a plane to the United States.<\/p>\n

An official from the Kiwoom Heroes team said on the 28th, \u201cLee Jung-hoo is leaving for the United States today. \u201cI understand that they are carrying out planned training in the United States,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Lee Jeong-hoo boarded a plane to the United States earlier than scheduled to adapt to the local environment. The prospect that the posting date will be in early December is also cited as a reason for the early departure.<\/p>\n

Reporter John Heyman<\/a> of the New York Post, an American media outlet, said on his personal SNS on the 28th (Korean time), \u201cLee Jung-hoo, former KBO League Most Valuable Player (MVP), is expected to be posted in early December.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the 22nd, Lee Jeong-hoo’s original team, Kiwoom, submitted the data necessary for the posting system (private competitive bidding), including Lee Jeong-hoo’s medical records, to the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) on the 24th, and on the 24th, the KBO requested that Lee Jeong-hoo be posted to 30 MLB clubs. A request was made to the MLB Secretariat.<\/p>\n

The 30 MLB clubs can negotiate a contract with Jeong-hoo Lee from 8 a.m. Eastern time on the day after the MLB Secretariat notifies the posting until 5 p.m. on the 30th day.<\/p>\n

After the MLB<\/a> Secretariat officially announces the posting, Lee Jung-hoo plans to travel to the United States and begin full-scale negotiations with his agent Scott Boras.<\/p>\n

It is already receiving strong interest from MLB clubs. The New York Post wrote, \u201c20 teams are interested in Lee Jung-hoo.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the United States, the San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees, who are in dire need of outfield reinforcement, are being chosen as Lee Jung-hoo’s expected destinations.<\/p>\n

American media outlet NBC Sports Bay Area said, \u201cCody Bellinger is the best center fielder among free agents (FA) this off-season, but Lee Jung-hoo may be a better fit for San Francisco.\u201d American sports media ESPN recommended that the Yankees should recruit Lee Jung-hoo.<\/p>\n

Local media are looking at Lee Jeong-hoo’s contract with optimism. It is expected that a large contract worth more than $50 million (approximately KRW 64.8 billion) will be signed. \ud1a0\ud1a0\uc0ac\uc774\ud2b8<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
