The Korean free agent market is heating up,and while power-hitting first baseman Byung-ho Park is off the market, there are still talented Korean players available to be signed in free agency.
According to Yahoo! Sports's Jeff Passan, Korean left fielder Hyun-soo Kim wants to sign with a MLB team. He's 27-years young, which is a prime time to be entering the market, and is registered as an international free agent.
This means Kim can sign with any team and avoid going through the posting process, where rights to negotiate go to the highest bidder in a silent auction (like what the Twins had to do to land Park), and makes him an ideal candidate for the Rays.
