Will Kim Ha-sung (29, San Diego Padres), who left the team due to a shoulder injury, make the postseason for the first time in two years? First of all, he has secured his team’s advance to the postseason.
The San Diego Union-Tribune, a local media outlet in San Diego, said on the 25th that Kim Ha-sung will join the San Diego squad on the 28th (Korea time).
This is not a return from the injured list. It is common for players on the injured list to be accompanied by a team.
Kim Ha-sung injured his right shoulder while returning to the first base against the Colorado Rockies on April 19. Since then, Kim Ha-sung has been listed as injured due to tendinitis in his right shoulder.
At that time, he seemed to be able to return after completing the minimum period of the injured list. However, Kim Ha-sung has yet to return to the team, which has already been a month.
The reason why Kim Ha-sung is not returning is that he is showing a problem with a strong throw in the shortstop position. He can return only when this problem is solved.
However, even if Kim Ha-sung cannot play in the remaining five games, he does not complete this year’s schedule. This is because San Diego has confirmed its advance to the postseason.
San Diego won the LA Dodgers on the 25th and secured at least the third place in the wild card. Therefore, whether Kim Ha-sung will join the postseason roster is also of great interest.
Currently, the San Diego Padres are using shortstop Xander Bogaerts and second baseman Jake Cronenworth’s Keystone duo. Veteran Nick Ahmed has been hired as the backup shortstop.
If Kim Ha-sung’s condition improves, he can join the postseason roster. However, given Kim Ha-sung’s current condition, it is not 100% guaranteed.토토사이트 추천
