Will Smith remains out of Dodgers lineup due to back tightness
"Dave Roberts said Will Smith could've played today, if needed, but they don't want to push him. Described him as 'day to day' and said the injured list isn't a consideration right now."
"Smith has had a solid, but unspectacular start, to his 2026 season. He's played in 24 games, batting .266/.337/.392 with three home runs, 14 RBI, 11 runs scored, a 106 wRC+ and 0.5 WAR."
"Rushing is hitting .400/.475/1.057 with seven home runs, 15 RBI and 11 runs scored across 11 games, totaling a 308 wRC+ and 1.1 WAR."
Will Smith missed his second consecutive game due to back tightness, with manager Dave Roberts indicating he could play but prefers not to push him. Smith is day-to-day and not expected to go on the injured list. His performance this season has been solid, with a batting average of .266 and three home runs. Dalton Rushing, who is having a breakout season, is taking his place in the lineup. If Smith needs to be placed on the injured list, it would require a roster move.
