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

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Smith will bow out of the lineup against a right-handed starting pitcher (Pablo Lopez) as the Diamondbacks look to make room in the outfield for the hot-hitting Jordan Luplow, who popped two home runs in Sunday's 7-5 loss to the Cardinals. Smith doesn't look in imminent danger of losing hold of a strong-side platoon role, as he's been one of the more productive hitters in a listless Arizona lineup. His .332 wOBA is the best mark among all Diamondbacks hitters with at least 25 plate appearances on the campaign.

Smith batted leadoff and went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Saturday's 2-0 win over St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Speed is not Smith's game -- he had just two steals in 157 career games entering this season -- so maybe batting leadoff gave him the confidence to use his wheels. A recent stretch of consistently getting on base moved him up the order to the two hole, but Smith made his season debut at leadoff with Daulton Varsho getting the day off. It was the 29th start of his career atop an order. The lefty-hitting Smith is typically in the lineup against righties with occasional starts against southpaws. He currently leads Arizona's qualified batters with a .276 average, .377 OBP and .774 OPS.

Smith went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Thursday in a loss to the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

St. Louis jumped out to an eight-run lead after six innings, so Smith's two-run eighth-inning shot was little more than a consolation prize. Still, it was an important hit for the 26-year-old, as it was his first long ball of the campaign. Smith has been productive of late, driving in four runs over his past three games.

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

EDGE Analysis

Arizona will send out a right-handed-heavy lineup to counter Dodgers southpaw Julio Urias in the series finale. Smith will be joined on the bench by fellow lefty-hitting regulars Seth Beer and David Peralta.

Smith is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old started the past six games and will receive Sunday off despite the fact righty Tylor Megill is pitching for the Mets. Smith has come on strong of late, going 8-for-17 with three doubles, two walks, two RBI and a run over his past five contests. Jake McCarthy will start in right field in his absence.

Smith went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Smith had multiple hits and doubled for a second straight game, as the lefty-hitting outfielder's average surged this week. He's 8-for-17 with two walks, three doubles and two RBI over five games. Following a .160 start (4-for-25), Smith is batting .286 through 14 games.

Smith went 3-for-4 with a double in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Despite the Nationals rolling out right-handers in both games, Smith was on the bench for the afternoon affair while Jake McCarthy got the start in right field. Smith, who walked as a pinch hitter in the first game, resumed his role as the team's primary right fielder for the evening contest and delivered his second multi-hit performance in nine starts. With a .241 batting average, he's a rare breed in the Diamondbacks' lineup in that he's just one of three batters with an average above .200.

Smith is out of the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will presumably be back in the lineup for the nightcap, but he'll see a streak of five straight starts come to an end by taking a seat in the front end of the twin bill. With Smith on the bench, Jake McCarthy receives a turn in right field.

Smith went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was in an 0-for-9 slump before a second-inning single that led to a run scored. The lefty-hitting outfielder is usually in the lineup against pitchers of either hand and had both hits off Houston lefty Framber Valdez.

Smith is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is 1-for-8 with two walks through the first three games of the season and will head to the bench for Sunday's contest. Jake McCarthy will start in right field and bat eighth in his place.
