Cardinals' Kwang Hyun Kim: Set for side session

Kim (back) will throw a side session Friday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Kim hit the injured list with lower-back tightness Saturday, but the Cardinals didn't seem too concerned about a long absence for the lefty. That remains the case, as he's expected back sooner rather than later and won't need a rehab assignment. Exactly when the team expects to activate him remains unclear, however.
