The Hanwha Eagles will likely bring in Floral, who was a promising foreign hitter for the New York Yankees. Given that local media in the U.S. have already reported on his trip to Hanwha, and Hanwha has not specifically refuted Floral, the recruitment seems to be in the process.안전놀이터

Not only is he a new foreign player for the popular Hanwha team, but he is also attracting attention for his stellar performance. He started his professional career by signing a contract with the Yankees in 2015, and since then, he has been noted as the top prospect of the Yankees. He said he has excellent athletic ability that emanates from his solid body.

First of all, he is the best defense and base running in the Major League Baseball as well. He is said to have excellent range of defense and strong shoulders by utilizing fast feet. He is set to play baseball at a new stadium starting next year, and the defense of the outfield center line seems to be criticized by his concerns.

However, no team chooses foreign batters based on defense and base running. What a foreign batter expects is a hit no matter what. He should lead the team's batting lineup from the center or at least from the top.

However, from this point of view, it is unclear whether Floral will be able to meet the expectations of Hanwha and fans.

Such is the record. He played 84 games in five seasons in the Major League, with a batting average of only 192.

Only Major League Baseball can understand this. It is a stage where the best pitchers in the world pitch their pitches. It is not easy to lie down on those pitches. If so, we would not have come to Korea.

However, his minor league performance is also shaky. His overall batting average in 745 games is 265. His batting average in 64 games at Triple-A fell to 213. He is the type of batter who strikes out a lot. During his four seasons at Triple-A, he struck out a whopping 468 batters. Hence, his chances of entering the big league have declined, and he seems to have chosen to go to Korea.

However, he does not need to be pessimistic. He has strong power. He only had nine homers this year, but recorded 28 homers and 25 steals in last year's Triple-A competition. This is the result of his swing style, which requires opening the lid.

This is the key. Either he will hit long balls against Korean pitchers whose ball power is inferior to those of the U.S., or he will suffer from poor breaking balls and ball control and end up as a fastball to Korean pitchers. If it were the former, he could expect more than 30 homers and 30 steals because his feet are so fast. He has 172 steals in total in the Minor League. If he plays the perfect outfield defense in the 30s and 30s, he will become a "jackpot" for Hanwha.
