Fantasy Impact:

Incentives could push the total value up to $32 million. This past season Kim hit .307 with 30 homers and 23 stolen bases for the Kiwoom Heroes. It's currently unclear where he'll play defensively, but one would figure that he slots in as the Padres' everyday second baseman with Jake Cronenworth settling serving more as a super-utility player. Kim has the skillset to be fantasy relevant if he gets enough playing time.
