Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is dealing with a minor back injury, leading to his exclusion from Saturday's lineup against the Chicago Cubs.
Manager Dave Roberts said Smith's back "is a little tight," which is why Dalton Rushing is catching and batting sixth.
For what it's worth, Roberts said he expects Smith to be back in the lineup on Sunday.
That, of course, depends on how he wakes up on Sunday morning.
Dave Roberts said Will Smith gets a day off because his back “is a little tight.”
Roberts expects Smith to catch tomorrow. #Dodgers
