Ha-Seong Kim Getting Close to a Return
Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder), who took ground balls and threw to first base on Monday, is getting close to a return, according to Bally Sports' Ryan Bass. Kim is scheduled to take batting practice and do more infield work and could take live at-bats and be sent to the rookie-level Florida Complex League by the end of the week. "We look at this as being a big week," manager Kevin Cash said. The 29-year-old could start an official minor-league rehab assignment by next week, depending on how this week goes. He's currently on the 60-day injured list after having surgery for a right-shoulder injury that cut his 2024 season short with the Padres. When he does finally make his debut for the Rays, Kim is expected to become the team's primary shortstop and will offer some speed and positional versatility for those in deep-mixed fantasy managers in the middle infield.
