Jung-Ho Kang is Confident He Can Outplay Jordy Mercer at Shortstop

Published:

Jung-Ho Kang held a press conference with the Korean media, prior to his flight to the U.S. The infielder talked about several topics, including mentioning that he would like to get a chance to compete with Jordy Mercer for the shortstop position. He also re-iterated his desire to square off against Aroldis Chapman, and said that he won’t be changing much in his game. There were also mixed reports on whether he has actually signed, with one tweet indicating he hasn’t signed yet, and another saying he just doesn’t know the details. Obviously he hasn’t “signed”, since he’s still in Korea, but it’s possible that he has agreed to terms. Here are the tweets from the press conference.
