Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Jung Hoo Lee

KBO, South Korea’s baseball league, is known for a flashier style of play than MLB features. Players sell out on the fastball and pimp home runs in a way we just don’t see stateside, but Jung Hoo Lee is a little bit different. In many ways, he’s the ultimate contact hitter, hitting .340 and walking more than he’s struck out in seven years in the KBO. He’s going to be posted this winter, meaning all 30 MLB clubs can bid on the centerfielder, with a percentage fee going back to the Kiwoom Heroes from whoever the final bidder is.
