It was predicted that Bae Ji-hwan would compete against Leeover Peguero (23), Nick Gonzalez (24), and Alica Williams (24).
Bae Ji-hwan played in 111 games last season with a batting average of 0.231,
2 home runs, 32 RBI, 54 runs, 24 stolen bases, and OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.608.

Peguero had a batting average of 0.237, 7 home runs, 26 RBI, and an OPS of 0.653 in 59 games.
While Gonzalez had a batting average of 0.209, 2 home runs, 13 RBI, and an OPS of 0.616 in 35 games.
Williams had a batting average of 0.198, 6 RBI, and an OPS of 0.518 in 46 games.

he will need to make use of his strength, which is his speed, and at the same time complement his hitting ability.
Jared Triolo (26), who was Bae Ji-hwan’s strong competitor,
was expected to be used as a utility resource rather than a second baseman.
