Kim Hye-sung, who signed a three-year, $12.5 million contract (about 18.4 billion won), is set to train for the first spring camp with his Dodgers teammates at Glendale Camelback Ranch in Arizona on the 16th.

"We are currently focusing on how to deal with fast MLB pitchers' balls," he said, signaling thorough preparation.
