As Craig Calcaterra points out, if Shin-Soo Choo and his teammates on the Korean national baseball team can win the Asian Games this month, they’ll likely get out of their military commitments to South Korea. Choo, it should be noted, is awesome at baseball. He is one of the top handful of hitters in the Majors, he is already undoubtedly the best position player ever born in Korea, and he surpassed countryman Chan Ho Park in career WAR late last season.
