Dodgers Nation claims, “I’m thinking about changing my agent.”

 It was claimed that Ha-Seong Kim (LA Dodgers) said he wanted to play for the LA Dodgers.

Dodgers Nation TV host Doug McCain said on 'Dodgers Dugout Live' on the 11th (Korean time), "I heard many people in Seoul say Ha-seong Kim wants to play for the Dodgers." McCain is known to have visited Korea last March to cover the Seoul Series between San Diego and the Dodgers.

McCain also said that Ha-seong Kim "is known to be thinking about replacing the agent." It is presumed that this is for a better free agent contract than four years ago. Ha-seong Kim signed a four-year, $28 million contract with San Diego ahead of the 2021 season. 2025 is a mutual option, but it is highly unlikely that Ha-seong Kim will exercise it.

Kim Ha-seong's trade with the Dodgers was mentioned before this season. A survey was also conducted among Dodgers fans at the time.

However, the Dodgers decided to entrust the shortstop role to Gavin Lux, who returned from injury.

However, when Lux revealed his lack of ability to throw to first base in an exhibition game, the Dodgers urgently moved Mookie Betts, who had intended to use him as a full-time second baseman, to shortstop.

Then, it was pointed out that it was only a stopgap measure and that the Dodgers would eventually look for a shortstop in the 2024-2025 free agent market.

At the time, Friars on Base said that Ha-seong Kim could be the target.

This is because it is impossible for San Diego, which has a pay cut policy, to retain Kim Ha-seong, who is worth at least $100 million and up to $200 million in the 2024-2025 free agent market.

Friars on Base said, “If San Diego is unable to secure Ha-Sung Kim’s services next year, there will definitely be clubs that want him. “If Ha-seong Kim goes to the Dodgers, it will be the worst nightmare for San Diego fans,” he said. He

also said, “Ha-seong Kim can sign with the Dodgers next offseason. "San Diego fans wouldn't be surprised if the Dodgers make an all-out effort to sign Ha-Sung Kim next winter," he added.

According to the Southern California News Group, Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman has not decided whether to add a shortstop at the trade deadline. According to Dodger

Blue, manager Dave Roberts said of Betts' shortstop ability, "I would give him a solid B+ grade. It's really impressive. And it's going to get better."

According to statistics, Betts played shortstop in 31 games (28 starts) this season, recording a 0.965 fielding percentage and four errors.

He also followed Bobby Witt Jr. of the Kansas City Royals with seven. Coach Roberts , who ranked tied for second in this category in defensive runs saved (DRS), praised Betts for his

rapid development at shortstop despite not having much time to prepare for the recent position change.

As the trade deadline approaches, it goes without saying that the Dodgers will struggle to resolve their shortstop problem after the season.
