Ahead of Autumn Baseball and FA’s ‘Jackpot’…Kim Ha-sung is out for the season due to shoulder surgery

The San Diego Padres succeeded in advancing to the postseason for the first time in two seasons, but Kim Ha-sung (28) was unable to make the fall baseball stage.

Kim Ha-sung will end the season with shoulder surgery. San Diego coach Mike Shildt said Kim Ha-sung was “out of the season” due to a right shoulder injury ahead of the Arizona Diamondbacks’ game at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona on the 29th (Korea time).

Kim Ha-sung then announced through the U.S. media that he will undergo shoulder surgery himself. “I tried to come back to the team and help, but my body didn’t work out. This season is over. I feel disappointed and frustrated,” Kim said.

Before being injured this season, Kim Ha-sung played in 121 games with a batting average of .233, 11 homers, 60 points, 47 RBIs and 22 steals.토토사이트 추천

San Diego’s main shortstop and utility resource, Kim Ha-sung, injured his shoulder while sliding to the first base when his opponent was in check during a game against the Colorado Rockies on Aug. 19. The right shoulder injury adversely affected the throw. This delayed his return and he eventually decided to undergo surgery.

It was the best scenario for Kim Ha-sung to successfully finish this season without injury and knock on the free agent market. Kim Ha-sung signed a contract with San Diego in 2021 for 4+1 years and up to $39 million, and his four-year contract ends this year. Under mutual agreement, the contract can be extended by one year for an annual salary of $8 million, but he is likely to come out as an FA. The possibility that the aftermath of shoulder surgery will affect the FA market cannot be ignored.
