Hyeseong Kim has been a topic of discussion regarding his limited playing time for the Dodgers, starting only 24 games this season. Manager Dave Roberts explained that Kim's opportunities against left-handed pitchers are constrained due to a preference for right-handed hitters on the roster. Despite his limited play, Kim has performed well, with a .383 batting average and .968 OPS. Following injuries and roster changes, he is poised to get more starts at second base, especially with Tommy Edman recovering and shifting to the outfield.
