Smith agreed to a one-year contract with the Rangers on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Smith was projected to earn about $2.5 million in his first year of arbitration eligibility, per Spotrac.com, but the specifics of his deal have yet to be disclosed. He’s primarily worked as a super-utility player for the Rangers but could be more locked in at second base in 2026 following the offseason departure of Marcus Semien.
