KBO's KIA Tigers Remove Asian Quarter Player Jared Dale from Roster for "Adjustment"

Jared Dale, an Asian quarter player for the KBO's KIA Tigers, was removed from the active roster today (May 11), a day off for the team.

A KIA official stated, "This is for adjustment purposes," adding, "He is not injured. He will spend time readjusting while playing in the minor league (Futures League)."

Dale, the only position player among the team's Asian quarter signings, has recorded a .256 batting average with one home run and six RBIs in 34 games this season.

While he performed reasonably well through April, he has struggled since May, batting .136 over seven games.

In particular, he has been in a slump recently, failing to record a hit in his last four consecutive games.

Meanwhile, on the same day, the kt wiz removed sidearm pitcher Kim Jung-woon from the roster, the LG Twins removed outfielder Kim Ju-sung, the Samsung Lions removed outfielder Lee Sung-gyu, and the NC Dinos removed right-handed pitchers Lee Jun-hyuk and Son Ju-hwan, along with infielder Oh Tae-yang.
