SF Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is coming off his first full MLB season after his 2024 campaign was shortened due to an injury. The Giants are quickly approaching his player option which will come into play after the 2027 season.
The Giants signed Lee to a six-year, $113 million contract in December of 2023. Lee has the choice to opt out of the contract after the fourth year of the deal, but if he opts in he will get $20.5 million in both 2028 and 2029.
