Extends hit streak with fifth homer Kim went 1-for-3 wit ha walk, a home run and two RBI in Sunday's win over the Tigers.

Impact The shortstop took Casey Mize deep in the fourth inning for a solo shot, extending his hit streak to nine games in the process. During that stretch, Kim is batting .394 (13-for-33) with two of his five homers on the season, along with eight RBI and 10 runs. It's been a tough, injury-plagued campaign for Kim, but a strong finish to 2025 could make it more likely he declined his $16 million player option for 2026 and hits the open market this winter in search of a long-term contract.

Impact The 29-year-old clubbed the first pitch he saw from Drew Pomeranz in the seventh inning over the left-field fence, erasing a 1-0 deficit in an eventual 5-1 win. Incredibly, it was the first home run by an Atlanta shortstop this season, as the team has gotten a league-low .535 OPS at the position in 2025. The long ball was the third of the year in 26 games for Kim, who should handle starting duties the rest of September after making his Atlanta debut Tuesday.

Impact It was a nice beginning to his Atlanta tenure for Kim, who got the start at shortstop and hit sixth in the order after being claimed off waivers from the Rays and activated from the IL earlier in the day.

Claimed by Atlanta Atlanta claimed Kim off waivers from Tampa Bay on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Impact Atlanta will be on the hook for the roughly $2 million remaining on Kim's contract this season. According to Rosenthal, Kim (back) is also ready to be activated from the 10-day injured list. It's been an injury-riddled season for the 29-year-old shortstop, as he's appeared in just 24 games to this point. When healthy, Kim has slashed .214/.290/.321 with two home runs, five RBI, five runs scored, six stolen bases and an 8:23 BB:K across 93 plate appearances. Kim will likely see regular playing time at shortstop for Atlanta down the stretch.
