The Atlanta Braves activated infielder Ha-Seong Kim from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday, one day after claiming him off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays.

Kim, who had been dealing with low back inflammation, hasn't played since Aug. 19.

In other moves, the Braves designated right-hander Wander Suero for assignment, placed outfielder Jurickson Profar on the paternity list, optioned right-hander Hunter Stratton to the Triple-A Gwinnett Stripers and selected the contract of left-hander Hayden Harris from Gwinnett.

Kim, 29, is hitting .214 with two home runs and five RBIs in just 24 games this season as he has faced various injuries, including to his back and recovering from right shoulder surgery he underwent in October 2024 while with the San Diego Padres.

Kim began his MLB career with the Padres, tallying a .242 batting average, 200 RBIs and 47 HRs in 540 games.

He was the first Asian-born infielder to win a Golden Glove, which he won alongside San Diego teammate Fernando Tatis Jr. in 2023. Earlier this year, Kim inked a two-year, $29M contract with the Rays that includes a player option for 2026 which would pay him $16 million.

Suero, who turns 34 on Sept. 15, had an 11.37 ERA with four walks and seven strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings over five relief appearances in his first season with Atlanta.

Stratton, 28, was 0-1 with one save, a 1.86 ERA, two walks and seven strikeouts in 9 2/3 innings across six relief appearances for the Braves, who acquired him from Pittsburgh on July 1. Stratton was 0-0 with a 23.63 ERA in 2 2/3 innings over three relief appearances for the Pirates this season.

Profar, 32, is batting .258 with 12 home runs and 37 RBIs in 58 games in his first season with Atlanta. He received an 80-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance, Chorionic Gonadotropin, four games into the season

A first-time All-Star last season in San Diego, Profar is a career .245 hitter with 123 homers and 481 RBIs in 1,177 games for the Texas Rangers (2012-13, 2016-18), Athletics (2019), Padres (2020-22, 2023-24), Colorado Rockies (2023) and Braves.

Harris, 26, has pitched this season for the Braves' Triple-A and Double-A affiliates, going a combined 6-0 with four saves, a 0.56 ERA, 16 walks and 73 strikeouts in 48 innings over 39 relief appearances. The Augusta native played at Georgia Southern in Statesboro and would be making his major league debut.
