    Will Jung-Ho Kang go down as the greatest South Korean born MLB infielder in history?

    I think he may have already achieved that! will bump this thread after the Pirates win the WS

    guy might end up the NL rookie of the year

    agreed

    players talk should only be for real serious sports discussion. SBR overall should be like a quiet and orderly sports gambling museum and library.

    no tom foolery on the message boards.

    Mods please move this thread to the Private Zone and put me on post review

    we need all the space in players talk we can get for intelligent posting

    Kid has always loved to swing the bat. Even when he was just a little one.

    Great kid. Makes me proud to be his uncle.

    This would of been a more relevant discussion. To talk about someone being the greatest in his first year, its just because you were desperate for views in a thread so you could feel good about yourself. Sad to put yourself in the same department as Big Bear, Seaweed, Giant and some of the other tards on this site

    Lol settle down. Archive was joking since there were two other threads like this. But the funny thing is this thread is true unlike the other two.

    I mean... I DID actually put that same relevant discussion topic in the original post if you look.

    thanks for the views and replies!

    i'm feeling good!

    Kang might end up with a higher WAR than Cutch, Cervelli, and Marte this year

    You have a sharp eye Archie, can spot talent better than anyone I've witnessed before. You could easily be an MLB scout

    It is my hope as a bucs fan that Kang's arrival in Pittsburgh will help the Bucs land the next big South Korean star

    Park Byung Ho

    but with Kang's success the Posting $ just to talk to him might get into too high of a bidding war for the bucs

    As of right now..Chanho Park as a SP..Hyun Jin Ryu has a chance to surpass Park if he can stay healthy.

    Byoung Hyun Kim as a closer..His pitches were sick and no one can forget 2001 WS.

    Hee seop Choi displayed some power but never really got to be a consistent everyday player to survive in the league. Kang needs to learn to be more patient at the plate but he has so much more upside than Choi.

    Japanese players are way better. Very few Korean players compare.
