Ha-Seong Kim Hand Injury Continues to Hamper Braves SS
Kim slipped on ice in the offseason, missed time on the IL, and has been nearly unplayable at the plate since returning to Atlanta's lineup.
Ha-Seong Kim suffered a hand injury in the offseason after slipping on ice and was on the injured list into mid-May. Since returning, he has posted a .068/.171/.068 slash line, making him one of the least productive hitters in baseball. His Statcast metrics are also down across the board, suggesting the struggles are not purely bad luck. The Braves are reportedly exploring trade options to address the shortstop position as a result.
