Jung Hoo Lee is San Francisco-bound.
The Korean outfielder agreed to a six-year, $113 million contract with the Giants, The Post’s Jon Heyman confirmed.
The deal includes an opt-out clause after four years.
It comes after the Giants struck out on several big-name free agents in recent years, including Yankees slugger Aaron Judge last offseason and two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani this winter.
Ohtani ended up signing a record 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers.
Lee is a talented player in his own right and has drawn praise for what he can bring to MLB teams.
The Giants finished a disappoiting 79-83 and missed out on the playoff for the second straight season.
The 25-year-old spent the past seven seasons with the Kiwoom Heroes of the Korea Baseball Organization.
During that span, Lee batted .340/.407/.491 while drawing 383 walks compared to 304 strikeouts.
He really made his mark in 2022 when he hit 23 home runs and hit .349 with 113 RBIs.
Last season he appeared in 86 games and slashed .318/.406/.455 before season-ending ankle surgery cut things short for him.
Lee has been training without any limitations.
“He’s regarded as a plus runner and defender, and he’s demonstrated appreciable bat-to-ball skills,” CBS Sports wrote about Lee when ranking him as the 15th-best free agent available.
“Lee had a 91% contact rate this season, including a 97% contact rate against fastballs, according to data obtained by CBS Sports. He’s not a big-time slugger (23 of his 65 career home runs came in 2022), and that puts the onus on him making a full recovery so that he can contribute in the field and on the basepaths. Teams always have concerns about how KBO hitters will fare against MLB pitching. The recent success of Ha-Seong Kim, Lee’s former teammate, should provide them with some peace of mind.”
He also starred for Korea in the 2023 World Baseball Classic where he hit .429/.500/.571 while recording two doubles and five RBIs.
As per MLB’s posting system arrangement, Lee’s KBO team will receive a transfer fee based on his total contract value.
