You Need Another Ha-seong Kim Wish Post

Ladies and gentlemen, gather around because Bleeding Yankee Blue has been banging this drum so loudly that even the folks in the cheap seats can hear it. For two months, we’ve been shouting from the rooftops that Ha-Seong Kim is the answer the Yankees have been searching for. Seriously, this guy might just be the final piece of the championship puzzle. The Yankees need to add some depth to their infield, specifically at second or third base. And guess what? Jazz Chisholm is more than ready to step in and take the spot the Yankees don’t fill.

Look, we all love DJ LeMahieu. The guy’s been a rock for the Yankees. But let’s be honest here—hoping for a resurgent season from him is a bit like hoping you’ll finally win the office March Madness pool after years of picking your favorite mascot. It could happen, sure, but would you bet your life savings on it? Probably not. The Yankees’ front office shouldn’t either.

Enter Ha-Seong Kim, stage right. The former San Diego Padres infielder has been linked to the Yankees as a potential target, and for good reason. Kerry Miller of Bleacher Report mentioned Kim as a logical fit for the Bombers. And trust us, when it comes to logic, Miller’s got it nailed down.

Sure, Miller predicted that Kim might sign with the Seattle Mariners (because who doesn’t love some good old-fashioned Mariners speculation?), but he also dropped a little nugget of hope for us Yankees fans. If a bidding war breaks out, Miller hints, the Yankees could easily come out on top.

“The Yankees have also been a reported suitor for Kim’s services after the recent rumblings of a trade for Luis Arraez seemed to fizzle out in a hurry. And if it boils down to a bidding war between the Yankees and the Mariners, well, advantage Yankees,” Miller wrote. And let’s face it, when it comes to bidding wars, the Yankees are like that guy at the auction who keeps raising his paddle while sipping on a martini. Cool, calm, and ready to win.

So here we are, Yankees fans, with our fingers crossed and our hopes high. Ha-Seong Kim isn’t just an option; he’s the secret weapon we’ve been waiting for. And here at Bleeding Yankee Blue, we’re not just jumping on the bandwagon—we built the bandwagon. Let’s make it happen, Yankees. Bring Kim to the Bronx and let’s see how this story unfolds.
