After graduating from Yatap High School, Kim Ha-sung was nominated by the Nexen Heroes (currently Kiwoom) as the 29th overall pick in the second third round in 2014. At that time, manager Yeom Kyung-yeop was leading the team, and he took high school graduate rookie Kim Ha-sung to the first-tier spring camp. He played 60 games as a backup for the first team that year, preparing Kang Jung-ho as the next shortstop who is about to advance to the Major League.
Kim Ha-sung, who became the main shortstop at the age of 20 in 2015, quickly grew into a shortstop representing the KBO League and achieved his dream of becoming a major leaguer.
According to a report by the San Diego regional media “San Diego Union-Tribune” on the 28th (Korea Standard Time), Kim Ha-sung, who injured his shoulder during the Colorado Rockies match on the 19th of last month, recovered slower than expected, and it is still unclear whether he will play in the postseason.
Coach Mike Shildt said, “Kim Ha-sung is not in a situation where he cannot move on to the next stage. There is not enough time to return within the regular season. The throw is not perfect yet.”
“Kim Ha-sung is a key player in our team,” Shildt said. “I’m trying hard to get back to the ground, but I haven’t had any effect yet. As a shortstop, I can only play if I can make a perfect throw.” 토토사이트 순위
The Major League’s official website ‘MLB.com ‘ said that there is a possibility that Kim Ha-sung will undergo surgery after the season.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop, who met with reporters ahead of an away game against the Samsung Lions on Friday, expressed deep regret over the news of Kim Ha-sung’s injury. “I think he lost his shoulder. Talking about surgery means he lost his shoulder. If he has a bad right shoulder, it would be a big deal,” he sighed.
Kim Ha-sung, who was scheduled to acquire his first major league FA qualification after the end of this season, is likely to suffer a lot from the aftermath of his shoulder injury. Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, “I’m in big trouble because I’m about to have a free agent. In the end, 60% of the defense is taken up,” sincerely wishing Kim Ha-sung to recover as soon as possible.
