EDGE Analysis

Since being activated from the 10-day injured list following the All-Star break, Smith has started one game while Dustin Garneau is set to receive his second turn behind the plate Sunday. The two backstops will likely continue to work in a rough timeshare with top catcher Jonathan Lucroy (nose/concussion) expected to remain on the IL until around mid-August.

Smith (hand) was activated from the injured list prior to Friday's game against the Mariners, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

He may not be 100 percent recovered, but the Angels are running out of healthy catchers, so Smith will be activated a little ahead of schedule. Dustin Garneau, who is starting Friday, may get the bulk of the playing time in the short term. Jonathan Lucroy is out with a concussion and broken nose.

Smith was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left hand metacarpal sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Smith went 2-for-3 with a solo homer off Jake Faria in a 5-3 win over the Rays on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Serving as the cleanup hitter, Smith doubled and provided the Angels' fifth run with his homer to right field. This was his fourth game back from the 7-day injured list and the 30-year-old is 5-for-15 since his return. He has a .299/.393/.481 slash line and should continue to split time with Jonathan Lucroy behind the plate.

Smith (concussion) was activated from the 7-day injured list ahead of Friday's game against the Mariners, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

As expected, Smith will rejoin the team after landing on the injured list May 22 with a concussion, and he's set to resume backup catching duties behind Jonathan Lucroy. Dustin Garneau was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
