Jung Hoo Lee A Full-Go For Spring Training
San Francisco Giants manager Bob Melvin said on Wednesday that outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) is a full-go for spring training. Lee played in just 37 games in 2024 in his first year in the big leagues after injuring his left shoulder and undergoing season-ending labrum surgery in June. Before injuring his shoulder in a collision with the outfield wall, the 26-year-old Japanese outfielder hit .262/.310/.331 with a below-average .641 OPS, two home runs, eight RBI, two steals and 15 runs scored in 145 at-bats. He figures to once again be San Fran's primary leadoff hitter in 2025, which will give him plenty of opportunities to score runs for fantasy managers. Lee is an elite contact hitter, but his .310 on-base percentage was a disappointment, albeit in a small sample size. His 41.8% hard-hit rate from 2024 should translate to more power in 2025, but fantasy managers should be targeting Lee as a No. 4 or 5 outfielder going into his sophomore season.
