Braves expected to trade Ha-Seong Kim ahead of deadline
Summary

The Atlanta Braves are anticipated to make moves before the MLB trade deadline to enhance their roster. One of the players likely to be included in trade discussions is Ha-Seong Kim, who has struggled this season with a batting average of 5-for-52 and has dealt with injuries. Sources suggest that the Braves may package Kim with a top pitching prospect and cover part of his $20 million salary to attract interest from teams looking for middle infield help. The Braves aim to improve their performance further this summer as they approach the trade deadline.
