Dae-Ho Lee is a 6-foot-4, 286 pound, right handed first baseman and right handed power hitter. He looks like a giant Korean Babe Ruth. Although Shannon Drayer has noted that the rumor is that he has been working out in the last few months to play Major League Baseball and has lost a significant amount of weight. He is 33 years old.

He has played professionally in both the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) and the Japan Pacific League (JPPL).
