Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The left-handed-hitting Smith has been a mainstay in the lineup versus right-handed pitching all season, but he'll hit the bench Sunday while the Marlins send righty Eury Perez to the hill. Smith's exit from the lineup comes after he went just 2-for-21 with one walk against six strikeouts over the past six games.

Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

With lefty Framber Valdez on the hill for the Astros, the left-handed-hitting Smith will get the day off after starting in each of the previous seven games. Ezequiel Duran will cover shortstop in Smith's stead.

Smith went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is up to 10 steals on the year, though he hadn't logged one over his first 41 games in the second half. His previous pilfer came versus the Astros on July 12. Smith has gone 7-for-29 (.241) over his last eight games and continues to see steady time at shortstop versus right-handed pitchers to cover the absence of Corey Seager (appendectomy). On the year, Smith is slashing .255/.334/.375 with nine home runs, 33 RBI, 63 runs scored, 22 doubles and two triples through 500 plate appearances in a utility role.

Smith went 2-for-2 with an RBI double and two runs scored during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Smith drew three walks in addition to his pair of hits Sunday, marking his second game with three walks this season. The 28-year-old hadn't logged multiple hits in 15 straight games, going 10-for-55 (.182) during that stretch. He's slashing .257/.337/.379 in 438 plate appearances during 2025.

Smith started at second base and went 0-for-2 with a walk and was hit by a pitch in Monday's 4-0 loss to the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Smith took over at second base with Marcus Semien (foot) on the 10-day injured list and likely done for the rest of the regular season. It was the third start at second base this season for Smith, who wears many gloves for Texas. He's had a rough go of it in August, slashing .197/.274/.250 with four RBI and six runs scored over 23 games this month.

Smith started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has started four consecutive games in right field, a spot that normally is filled by the injured Adolis Garcia (ankle). Smith makes a good living in Texas as a fill-in for injured players regardless of position. He's started games at first base (24), third base (28), shortstop (31) and all three outfield spots (13).

Smith started in left field and went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Smith doubled to kick off a four-run sixth-inning that brought the Rangers back into the contest. The double was his 20th and the run scored his team-leading 58th through 107 games. Smith has been seeing time in left field with Evan Carter (back) on the IL, but Carter is set to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday and could rejoin the club for a road trip in Toronto beginning Friday. That would put Smith back into a useful super-utility role, filling in wherever needed.

Smith went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and a second run scored in Sunday's 8-1 win over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Smith had gone 0-for-9 with three strikeouts over his previous three games. He stretched Texas' lead to 5-1 with his second-inning homer off Bryce Elder, which was Smith's first long ball since July 5 in San Diego. The utility player is up to a .274/.352/.415 slash line with nine homers, 28 RBI, 52 runs scored, nine stolen bases, 17 doubles and one triple over 93 contests. Smith's playing time has faltered a bit with the Rangers facing lefties in four of their last eight games, but he should be a fairly regular presence in the lineup versus right-handers without being strictly platooned.

Smith is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Though he was included in the lineup for Monday's series opener when the Athletics sent southpaw Jacob Lopez to the hill, the left-handed-hitting Smith will take a seat Wednesday while lefty JP Sears pitches for the opposition. With Smith on the bench, Ezequiel Duran will pick up a start at first base.

Smith started at designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Smith continues to fill in everywhere for the Rangers. He most recently had a regular gig at third base, but that closed when Josh Jung was called up from Triple-A Round Rock. Besides DH, Smith can get consistent playing time at first base while Jake Burger (quadriceps) is on the 10-day injured list.
