On bench for night game Smith will sit for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Rockies, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Smith went 0-for-3 with a walk and a pair of strikeouts in the first game of the day. Brandon Nimmo slides to left field in the evening game, with Kevin Pillar starting in center.

Three hits in Wednesday's win Smith went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Phillies.

Impact It's the first multi-hit performance of the year for the 25-year-old, who's managed only five hits in total over his first six games. That was still enough to boost Smith's batting average to .286 (8-for-28) and he has produced solid power numbers with two homers and six RBI, but his 0:11 BB:K is a cause for concern.

Slugs second homer Smith went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a strikeout in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Phillies.

Impact An 0-for-4 showing with two more whiffs in the nightcap put a damper on his day, but Smith still connected on his second homer of the year in the first inning of the opener. The 25-year-old has fanned nine times in his first 23 at-bats this season, leading to a .217 batting average, but three of his five hits have gone for extra bases (one double and two homers).

Launches first homer Tuesday Smith went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Phillies.

Impact He got the Mets on the board by taking Chase Anderson deep in the fourth inning. Smith wasn't in the starting lineup for the team's belated season opener with a lefty on the mound for the Phillies, and if manager Luis Rojas continues to use him in a strict platoon, it will put a ceiling on Smith's fantasy value despite the upside he showed with the .993 OPS he posted in 2020.

Manager Luis Rojas didn't sound too concerned about the issue and said that Smith did some defensive work prior to Wednesday's game. Barring any setbacks, Smith could be back in the lineup in the coming days.
