Los Angeles Dodgers utility man Hyeseong Kim is in a prime position to receive more playing time in the coming weeks, per the latest update from manager Dave Roberts.
Tommy Edman received a day off Saturday, and the Dodgers penciled in Hyeseong Kim as the starting second baseman. Kim won four Gold Glove awards at second and shortstop during his time in Korea Baseball Organization.
Edman spent three weeks on the injured list with a right ankle sprain, returning to the lineup May 18. Now that his ankle has recovered well enough, the team plans on putting Edman in the outfield more often.
