3 years agoSan Diego Padres infielder Ha-Seong Kim went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBI Sunday against the Colorado Rockies. Kim contributed to a four-run first inning with a bases loaded, two-run double before launching a solo homer in the sixth frame. With the injury to shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. (shoulder), Kim will be amongst the depth pieces relied upon to support the offense while the Padres star is out. While he's shown flashes with a 112.3 mph max exit velocity, Kim has struggled in his rookie campaign, slashing .214/.273/.364 with six dingers, five steals and 49 runs-plus-RBI in 228 plate appearances. Kim won't play every day due to the versatility within the Friars infield, but he'll certainly get more opportunities. A reasonable DFS punt, Kim still needs to show more offensive prowess before he's a realistic season-long option.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
