Out of Thursday's lineup
Smith isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against San Diego.
Analyse
Smith will retreat to the bench to begin Thursday's series finale after going 0-for-8 through the first three games, which has dropped his OPS down to .428 for the season. Tim Tawa will pick up a start at first base and bat ninth while Smith sits.

Absent from lineup
Smith is not in the lineup for Monday's game in San Diego.
Analyse
It's right-hander Walker Buehler on the mound for the Padres, but the left-handed-hitting Smith will nonetheless begin the contest on the bench. Smith -- who is slashing an ugly .157/.259/.214 in 25 games this season -- will yield first base to Ildemaro Vargas.

Sits against right-hander
Smith was held out of the starting lineup Saturday against Milwaukee right-hander Brandon Woodruff.
Analyse
Smith is typically a lineup staple against righties, but Ildemaro Vargas got the start at first base Saturday. Smith is a career 1-for-11 against Woodruff, but the decision to sit him may have been more about a current slump. Smith is batting just .152 since coming off the injured list in late May and entered Saturday with two hits over his last 27 at-bats (.074).
