In the Dominican on Sunday night, Jung-Ho Kang went 0-for-4, driving in a run with a sacrifice fly. He struck out twice, giving him 15 strikeouts and a .128 average through 11 games. It will be interesting to see how often he plays if he continues to struggle. Winter leagues are notorious for giving up on foreign-born players quickly if they don't immediately perform. We have seen players dropped after just 3-4 bad games. The Dominican League has a 50-game regular season, so when a team loses four straight like Kang's team did tonight, they tend to make changes.
