Orioles' Hyun Soo Kim: Returns to lineup
Kim is in the lineup Friday, batting second in the order and playing left field against Toronto.
Analysis:
Kim has cooled off lately as he's gone 2-for-20 over his last six games after hitting .378 over his first 74 at-bats of the season. As a result, the Orioles have given the 28-year-old two of the last four games off to try and reverse his slumping bat. He's back out there Friday, however, penciled in the order between Adam Jones and Manny Machado, so he should see plenty of opportunities to provide production.
