Rest-of-Season Projections
Return pushed back again
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Smith won't be activated from the 15-day injured list Wednesday after recently experiencing a "pinch" in his right shoulder, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
He will have his return pushed back a second time because the Mets need length from their bullpen and Smith isn't ready to provide that yet. Smith is still able to continue throwing in spite of the setback, so he may not be ruled out for a return from the IL for Thursday's series finale in Philadelphia or at some point this weekend.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Working with new cutter
Smith has begun using a low-90s cutter this season, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander already featured a diverse repertoire but can now go six pitches deep with the new addition. Smith had a bit of a down season in 2023 with a 4.15 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over 56.1 innings, but through eight appearances this year he's given up just one earned run and struck out 10. However, he's also issued five walks and has a 1.32 WHIP, and he'll likely need to cut down on the free passes in order to maintain the elite run prevention rate.
