Kim Ha-sung (aged 30, Tampa Bay Rays) held a Zoom interview with Korean media on Wednesday. What I'm most curious about is the timing of his return. "As early as late April, late April to early May," he said. U.S. media recently said that Kim Ha-sung's return to April is impossible. However, he vowed to make efforts to return as soon as possible.먹튀검증

There are two reasons why Kim Ha-sung wants to return quickly. First of all, his rehabilitation pace is actually good. In the interview that day, he relieved his fans that the surgery went well, he is currently in good physical condition, and he is rehabilitating well. He also posted a video of himself doing batting training on his Instagram.

Also, for Kim Ha-sung, this season is a very important year that could determine the life of a major leaguer. He will be 31 next year. In fact, this winter is the first and last chance to sign a $100 million FA jackpot contract. The possibility of a jackpot contract increases only when he returns as soon as possible and performs in as many games as possible.

Of course, the most important prerequisite is that rehabilitation must be completed well. The worst of the worst is getting injured again. At this point, however, I don't think we have to assume that the worst is the worst. After returning to the U.S. quietly without having an interview for his departure, he suddenly volunteered to do a Zoom interview because he has confidence in his recovery.

However, if Kim Ha-sung's return to the team at the end of April becomes a reality, an interesting matchup could be achieved, which is cruel for someone else. Tampa Bay has an away trip to the West at the end of April. It is also an away trip to the Interleague. First of all, the team will play three consecutive away games during the week against the Arizona Diamondbacks from April 23-25. Then, it will play three consecutive away games against the San Diego Padres on the weekend from April 26-28.

The Major League has set a schedule for 30 teams to have at least two to three face-to-face meetings starting in the 2023 season. In the past, teams in the same district had 17 to 18 face-to-face meetings with teams in different districts, and five to six face-to-face meetings with teams in the same league. The Interleague was limited to matchups with some teams, including regional rivals. However, all 30 teams now have to have at least two to three face-to-face meetings with each other every season. Instead, the number of face-to-face meetings with teams in the same district has decreased significantly.

Of course, Tampa Bay in the American League East will also face off with 15 National League teams. This year, the team will face off with teams in the National League West six times in an away game between Arizona and San Diego in late April. Then, it will move to the West in mid-August to play three consecutive games with the San Francisco Giants. The Los Angeles Dodgers will invite them home in early August to hold three consecutive games. It plans to hold three consecutive games at home to open the regular season with the Colorado Rockies.

Perhaps, there is no law against Kim Ha-sung not to make his Tampa Bay debut at Petco Park in San Diego, the only three consecutive games of the season. In reality, there is a high possibility that he will return after the Western expedition at the end of April, but if Tampa Bay considers the success, it could send Kim Ha-sung to the three consecutive away games against San Diego. The possibility is even lower, but there is no law against him not to return to the three away games against Arizona.

Kim Ha-sung will make his Tampa Bay debut at Petco Park? Even if he does well? It can be quite a shock to San Diego fans. However, in professional sports, it is common for yesterday's comrade to become tomorrow's enemy. It is definitely not a situation where Kim Ha-sung will look after anyone.

Even if Kim Ha-sung fails to make his Tampa Bay debut in the western expedition at the end of April, there is a good chance that he will accompany the squad heading to Petco Park to greet San Diego fans. One way or another, the timing of Kim Ha-sung's return match has emerged as the biggest concern.
