Hyun-Soo Kim, OF, Baltimore Orioles

Hyun Soo Kim isn't the most interesting name to see on this report, but has been squaring up the ball as good as anyone in the MLB.

Kim owns an average exit velocity of 96.0 mph with a 60.0% hard-hit rate and 0.0% soft-hit rate this past week. These numbers are already encouraging, but they're even more impressive upon finding out they've come against some elite pitchers in Chris Archer and Corey Kluber. Kim's .200 BABIP in this span suggests he's been extremely unlucky, and even though he's not a power hitter, he could easily see some of these hard-hit balls turn into extra-base hits.

Kim will face Jacob Faria and Alex Cobb at home later this week in a series against the Tampa Bay Rays, making him a cheap target on sites like FanDuel where he has been under $3,000.
