Kim will start in left field and bat ninth in the order Sunday against the Rays.

Analysis:

The injury to Adam Jones (ribs) will open up an opportunity for Kim to make his first MLB start. However, after Kim's awful spring training resulted in the Orioles expressing buyer's remorse for their offseason acquisition of the former KBO standout, the 28-year-old isn't expected to see much regular action behind Nolan Reimold in left field if Jones ends up hitting the DL.
