Kim (tricep) will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Thursday's game against the Pirates.

Kim missed two consecutive starts due to right triceps soreness, but the Padres never seemed concerned about him requiring a trip to the injured list. He came off the bench to pinch run for Jurickson Profar in the sixth inning Wednesday, ultimately staying in the contest and finishing 1-for-1 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored while playing five innings in the field in the Padres' 9-8 extra-inning triumph. With Kim checking out fine following Wednesday's contest, he'll draw back into the lineup for the series finale.
