Giants tabbed as likely landing spot for rival $49 million Gold Glover | Sporting News

The San Francisco Giants made a big splash when they signed Willy Adames to a record contract.

However, they could add another quality infielder this offseason.

Ha-seong Kim remains unsigned and likely won't be ready for Opening Day.

He suffered a shoulder injury toward the end of last season.

He underwent surgery but could be a valuable player when he's healthy again.

Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller tabbed the Giants as one of the likely landing spots for Kim.

"The Giants have also been a popular rumored landing spot for Kim," wrote Miller.

"They could roll with Tyler Fitzgerald at second base until Kim is good to go, and more fully resolve their 2B/DH plans whenever that is." Kim is projected to sign a four-year, $49 million deal this winter.

Kim is a great defender and can play multiple positions.

He won a Gold Glove in 2022 as a utility player.

He has a .242/.326/.380 career slash line with 47 home runs.

A middle infield of Adames and Kim could be one of the best defensive pairings in baseball.

His injury makes him a risky signing, but the belief is that he will be back before the All-Star break.

"The expectation remains that Ha-Seong Kim won't be game-ready for Opening Day as he recovers from shoulder surgery but that he will be back on the field well in advance of the All-Star break," wrote Miller.
