Omaha has been on the phones with nearly every team with a decent shortstop that may be for sale and has made 0 trades to acquire one thus far as the trade deadline appears imminent.

Just last week, the team thought they had it figured out with Jimmy Starks taking regular reps at the position, but a torn ACL threw that out the window.

Now the team has called up a player from AA to help defensively.

Rather than continue with Anastasio Santana who has been extremely underwhelming in the field with a .936 efficiency rating and a -5.4 ZR rating despite a scouting rating of 8 at the shortstop position, the team has elected to go with a minor league player with no experience what so ever in the BBA.

23 year old Ju-Young KimJu-Young Kim has been told to drive to company headquarters in Omaha. Kim will not provide the on base ability that Santana had provided however the team is hoping his 11.9 ZR & 1.089 efficiency carry over to the BBA.

Scouts project Kim a a player who will be lucky to hit above the Mendoza line annually so this could be the only chance Kim has to succeed in the BBA.
