Kim Hye-seong, the new Korean infielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers, says familiarity with the team and their recent World Series title lured him to Chavez Ravine over other places during contract talks.

The Dodgers on Friday agreed to terms on a three-year contract with infielder Hyeseong Kim of the KBO League, according to multiple reports. Daniel Kim of ESPN was first to report the news. The deal reportedly has the option for an additional two years.

The Los Angeles Dodgers' offseason may not be over after signing South Korean infielder Hye-Seong Kim. They could make a few more moves.

The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Korean Baseball Organization star Hye-seong Kim to a three-year deal on January 3. He would presumably take over as the team's everyday second baseman. That could mean the Dodgers no longer need one of their longtime starters.

SEOUL, Jan. 4 (Yonhap) -- South Korean All-Star infielder Kim Hye-seong has signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Kim's agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), said Saturday Kim agreed to a three-year deal worth US$12.5 million, with an option for two more years that would give him a chance to make up to $22 million total.
