Overview
- The Dodgers officially optioned Hyeseong Kim to Triple-A Oklahoma City on March 22, finalizing their lone remaining position-player decision before Opening Day.
- Prospect Alex Freeland was informed he made the 26-man roster and is expected to see time at second base alongside Miguel Rojas as Tommy Edman rehabs.
- Kim posted a .407/.448/.519 line with five steals this spring, but staff cited excessive swing-and-miss and mechanics that looked out of sync after his World Baseball Classic stint.
- Freeland hit .116 in Cactus League play yet drew 11 walks against 11 strikeouts, aligning with the club’s emphasis on plate discipline; he hit .263/.384/.451 with 16 homers at Triple-A in 2025.
- Veterans Nick Senzel, Jack Suwinski and Seby Zavala were reassigned to minor-league camp as part of the Dodgers’ final cuts.
