The Los Angeles Dodgers have an update on All-Star catcher Will Smith as he continues to deal with a hairline fracture in his hand. The backstop wasn’t able to start Game 1 of the NLDS, but later came in to both bat and take care of business behind the dish as his Game 2 status is ‘up in the air.’
In other news, former Dodgers World Series hero Walker Buehler, who is now with the Philadelphia Phillies, reportedly gave his new team information about the Dodgers. The information didn’t appear to help during Game 1, but there are still two more wins for LA to capture before advancing to the NLCS.
Finally, a player who hasn’t been too active this postseason in Hyeseong Kim has a plan for the rest of October. Manager Dave Roberts spoke on how he wants to best utilize the former KBO standout moving forward.
