Will Smith’s Neck Injury Impacts Dodgers
Description
Dodgers catcher Will Smith is sidelined with a stiff neck, missing Saturday’s game as the team prioritizes his health ahead of the playoffs. Though his stats this season—.249 batting average, six homers, 23 RBIs—fall short of his usual elite level, he remains a vital piece, especially with backup Dalton Rushing stepping up. The Dodgers are cautious, hoping Smith returns Sunday for the series finale against the Angels; if not, he could land on the injured list, handing Rushing more reps. With a championship run on the line, the team’s focus is clear: keep their star behind the plate healthy and ready.
