Kim Hye-sung (25, Kiwoom Heroes) can't go to the Major League by any chance?

The deadline for Kim Hye-sung's Major League posting is approaching. The posting began on the 5th (hereinafter in Korean time), and it is until 7 p.m. on the 4th. About three weeks have passed without any news, and now there are nine days left. However, there are few reports on the progress of Kim Hye-sung's negotiations among the U.S. media.먹튀검증

Regardless of the U.S. media reports, there are cases where a contract itself is made 10 seconds before the deadline for posting. However, it is true that Kim Hye-sung is not recognized as a Kim Ha-sung (FA) or Lee Jung-hoo (San Francisco Giants) in the U.S. For this reason, we cannot help but think of the worst case scenario where the contract failed.

If Kim Hye-sung's posting is ultimately unsuccessful due to non-bidities or disagreements with clubs, he cannot apply for posting again for the next year. If so, he will make a U-turn to Kiwoom, and if he plays in the KBO League until next year, he will be eligible for FA. If Kim Hye-sung tries to enter the Major League a year later, he will be an FA, not a posting.

Kiwoom seems to have a strange situation. Maybe, it will be difficult. On the surface, Kim's U-turn will help improve the team's capability immediately. Kiwoom will love this. However, chances are high that Kim will play until the 2025 season and say she will try again in the Major League.

In this case, Kiwoom can send Kim Hye-sung, the free agent, to the Major League. Unlike posting, Kiwoom loses all of its power even without paying a single penny for transfer fees. There is no one who doesn't know that posting fees were one of the reasons why Kiwoom used to post Kang Jung-ho, Park Byung-ho, Kim Ha-sung and Lee Jung-hoo before sending them to the Major League. Of course, it is right from a business perspective.

As a result, once Kim returns to Kiwoom after failing to post, there will likely be talks about a trade. For Kiwoom, it is better to earn the opposite benefit from a trade than to send Kim to the Major League in a year. The possibility of a trade is even greater as the team's recent direction is also rebuilding. With even Cho Sang-woo (KIA Tigers) eliminated in the 2025 season, Kiwoom's performance is lower than in the 2024 season.

It seems unlikely, but even if Kim Hye-sung declares that he will not try to go to the Major League in the future, Kiwoom can consider trading. If Kim Hye-sung stays in the KBO through the FA market after the 2025 season, it should be considered that he will lay down 10 billion won. It is unclear whether Kiwoom will be able to afford it.

For Kiwoom, it is neat for Kim Hye-sung to settle in the Major League through posting. Kim Hye-sung's return will help his team's strength, but if the trade is immediately mentioned, players preparing for the season and Kim Hye-sung's team may feel a bit embarrassed.

Of course, the nine clubs except Kiwoom are expected to constantly monitor and respond to changes in Kim's situation. Kim is the central infielder who holds the position of the most important position in the KBO League. If she enters the trade market, she will likely face fierce competition. Even if she rents a unit that is less than a year old, many clubs will want to buy one. The game of the league could change.
