San 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

The Tampa Bay Rays transferred infielder Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list on Friday, which pushes his potential return to late May at the earliest. The Rays also called up right-hander Connor Seabold from the minors and optioned right-hander Mason Englert to Triple-A Durham. Kim has yet to make his debut with the Rays while recovering from offseason surgery on his shoulder. The 29-year-old middle infielder increased his baseball activities late last month and could be ready for a minor-league rehab assignment soon. If he's able to avoid any setbacks with his shoulder once he begins playing in games, he could be on track to make his season debut in Tampa in late May or early June. When fully healthy, Kim will mainly offer modest speed for fantasy managers in deep-mixed leagues as the Rays' primary shortstop.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) is targeting a June/July return to the lineup for the Rays. He is reportedly doing well in his rehab from offseason shoulder surgery last October to fix a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Although he has not seen any game action, he has been throwing, hitting, and taking ground balls since March. The Rays will likely want to get him some minor league action before his return, and if that is the case, the Rays will try to get him playing by mid-May, if he is targeting a June/July return. Kim, a career .242/.326/.380 hitter, will likely take over daily shortstop duties for the Rays upon his return. Kim is a decent stash in 14-plus team leagues or should solely be relied on as a base stealer in category leagues.--Nicho Roessler - RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) is reportedly doing well in his rehab from offseason shoulder surgery last October to fix a torn labrum in his right shoulder. "He's doing very, very good. Took ground balls yesterday off the new clay that we have in place," manager Kevin Cash said. The 29-year-old didn't play in any games in spring training, but he was throwing, hitting and taking ground balls by the end of camp. He originally was hoping to make his Rays debut before the end of April, but since he has yet to embark on a minor-league rehab assignment, it's likely we won't see Kim for the first time in Tampa until early May. Once Kim is officially activated from the IL, he's expected to serve as the Ray's everyday shortstop. The South Korean is unlikely to repeat his breakout season in 2023 with the Padres, but at the very least he should be a nice source of steals as a middle infielder in deep-mixed and AL-only leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Free-agent infielder Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) and the Tampa Bay Rays agreed to a two-year, $29 million deal on Wednesday that includes an opt-out clause after the first season, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan. Kim is coming off labrum surgery but is expected to return in May and is slated to take over at shortstop for the Rays when he's ready to make his 2025 debut. Fantasy managers are going to be skeptical, and rightfully so, especially coming off shoulder surgery. It's a fair bet that the 29-year-old South Korean native's 2023 season with the San Diego Padres -- when he hit .260/.351/.398 with 17 homers, 60 RBI and 38 steals -- is his high-water mark. He dropped down to a .233/.330/.370 line with 11 homers, 47 RBI and 22 steals in 121 games last year. Kim is a nice source of speed, but coming off injury and going to a much weaker lineup in Tampa, his fantasy stock will be down considerably.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
