The return of Ha-seong Kim (29, San Diego Padres), who was placed on the injured list (IL) due to a right shoulder injury, is gradually approaching.
On the 4th (Korean time), American media outlet Sports Illustrated reported on coach Mike Shildt’s plans regarding Kim Ha-seong’s return.
Coach Silt did not specify the exact timing of Kim Ha-seong’s return. However, he hinted that he was recovering quickly, suggesting that he may return sometime this week.
Director Silt said, “Kim Ha-seong is completing both offensive and defensive training. In particular, his throwing ability is also improving.” When asked if he was throwing to first base, he answered, “It’s imminent.”
Until the day before, it was reported that Kim Ha-seong was still having trouble throwing at full power in the infield, but coach Silt himself came forward and reported on Kim Ha-seong’s recovery.
The current team also needs Ha-seong Kim’s return. San Diego, which has been in a fierce competition with the Arizona Diamondbacks for the National League wild card, can form a ‘complete team’ if Ha-seong Kim returns.
Coach Silt emphasized, “I can’t confirm Kim Ha-seong’s return this week, but it is true that he is showing clear signs of recovery.”
Meanwhile, before suffering a shoulder injury on August 19, Kim Ha-seong had solidified his position as the team’s starting shortstop with a batting average of 0.233 (94 hits in 403 at-bats), 11 home runs, 60 runs, 47 RBIs, and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.700 in 121 games.
