MLB.com expected Lee to have a smooth transition to the major leagues.

A very precise hitter, Lee batted .340 with a .407 on-base percentage and .491 slugging percentage in the KBO. After winning the KBO League MVP award in 2022, he ended his season early this year due to a fractured ankle, according to the detailed signing statement.

He added, “Lee should be recovered from the injury by the time he makes his major league debut. His agent is Boras Corporation. Considering his age and talent, he is likely to sign a large contract. It will depend on what major league teams expect from him.
