I'm not insider, but if the Orioles are trying to wait out Kim...

[Can_of_corn]

Things could open up as the season progresses or Reimold could be injured. Regardless, Kim is going to have to show something during the little time he will get early on whether it's good AB's, making good contact or

actually getting on base. I think he will get his chances one way or the other. The rest is up to him.

Sure, I was talking about the present and near future.

Kim is 28 and in his prime. I doubt he wants to spend the next two years sitting the bench. I look for an agreement to be worked out with a team in Korea that Kim will agree with.

[abbott]

I don't think it matters too much if he rides the bench a ton. A lot of our position players play a lot of games. We don't need a deep bench.

Hope you're right

[allquixotic]

Kinda hard for him to break into the lineup.

Who do you bench for him?

In the extreme event of injury of almost everyone on our 25-man, our starting 9 could look like this:

1. Xavier Avery LF

2. Joey Terdoslavich 1B ("Jo-ey! Jo-ey!")

3. Christian Walker CF

4. Hank Urrutia DH

5. Paul Janish SS

6. Francisco Pena C

7. Steve Tolleson 2B

8. Michael Almanzar 3B

9. Hyun-soo Kim RF

We can basically bat him once the Norfolk Tides become the Baltimore Orioles.

Your forgot about dem Hoes.

Who do you bench for him?

Maybe DH him?

Alvarez.

If Smyly starts tomorrow, I can't imagine Kim gets the start. Then again, he can't be any worse than Alvarez against lefties.
