Padres manager Mike Shildt said Monday on 97.3 The Fan that Kim (shoulder) is slated to join the club in St. Louis on Tuesday.

Shildt noted that Kim was scheduled to have his injured right shoulder examined again Monday, and presuming everything looks OK, the infielder would then rejoin the club on the road. It's not clear what the next step would be, but it would likely include the resumption of baseball activities. Kim is first eligible to return from the 10-day injured list Thursday, but it's uncertain whether he might have a shot to be back by that date.
