Crawdad Chronicles 50.02 - Kim a big add - but unlikely to be retained

Post by JimBob2232 » Sun May 08, 2022 9:01 pm

One of New Orleans under-valued additions this season was OF Myeong-Hwan Kim. Signed in May, Kim came in and had 1.7 WAR, including a .330/.342/.482 stat line and a +4.4 in left field.

His 4.7M salary is not bad for that kind of production - but closing in on 32 years of age, and a history of injury - new orleans will let kim test free agency.

GM Jim Roberts notes that Kim is a great player - and would love to have him back - but we just dont have a ton of cash. We'll certainly keep in the communication with him - and see what happens.

If Kim clears Free Agency (as he did last offseason) - look for Jim Roberts to hit him up on another 1 year deal - possibly less than the 4.7M he mae in 2050.
