Smith went 1-for-5 with two walks and a solo home run over both ends of Friday's doubleheader sweep of the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Smith launched his first homer in the majors in the fifth inning of the second game. He started in left field for the matinee and at first base in the nightcap. The 24-year-old Smith, a 2017 first-round draft pick, has hit safely in eight of 10 games and has posted a .294/.350/.441 slash line during his introduction to the majors.

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

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Smith gets the day off with a southpaw (Wes Benjamin) on the hill for Texas. Smith started each of Arizona's last five games, going 6-for-18 with a triple, four runs and two RBI.

Smith started at designated hitter and went 1-for-4 with a triple and an RBI in Friday's 6-3 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Pavin's hit safely in all six games since his callup, and the triple was his first extra-base knock. If the NL were to adopt the DH permanently, there might be a role for Pavin in 2021. He's currently blocked at first base and both corner-outfield spots, so a return to the minors may be how he starts next season.

Smith started at first base and went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Smith made his fourth start in the last five games, appearing twice at first base, once at designated hitter and once in right field. He's hit safely in all four starts with five singles across 15 at-bats. Smith is getting valuable exposure to advanced pitching, which could lead to a backup role at first base and corner outfield in 2021. The 2017 first-round pick, who'd never played above Double-A prior to 2020, could also start at Triple-A Reno next year.

Smith went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

One day after starting in right field, Smith was back in the lineup at first base Sunday. He has very little track record as a stolen-base threat in the minors, so Sunday's steal was a rare event, coming on the back end of a double steal. In two games since his contract was selected Thursday, Smith is 1-for-7 with one walk, one steal and two runs scored. Along with several other prospects up with the team right now, Smith should get ample plate appearances going forward, although maybe not daily.

Smith started in right field and went 1-for-4 in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Smith, a first-round draft pick in 2017, had his contract selected Thursday and made his MLB debut Saturday. He batted ninth and took the field in place of right-fielder Kole Calhoun. He's been a consistent hitter in the minors while playing corner outfield and first base.

Smith's contract was selected Thursday from the Diamondbacks' alternate training site, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is less of an event than when a typical top-10 draft pick is set to make his debut, but Arizona selecting Smith with the No. 7 overall pick in 2017 looked like a reach almost immediately after it happened. He hit .291/.370/.466 with 12 home runs in 507 plate appearances at Double-A last year, which was the first time he hit for average and power in pro ball. Smith would have had to been added to the 40-man roster after the season as protection from the Rule 5 draft, so this move gives the Diamondbacks a chance to see how he looks against big-league pitching over the next two-plus weeks. He takes the place of Jake Lamb, who was designated for assignment. Smith could get starts at first base, designated hitter and left field.

Smith entered Wednesday's intrasquad game as a replacement at first base for Seth Beer, who was removed after suffering a facial contusion, Arizona Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith entered the game for Beer, who took a high chopper in the face and was removed from the game with what was eventually determined to be a facial contusion. Beer, one of Arizona's highly regarded prospects, was not expected to be on the Diamondbacks' active roster at any point this season, but his injury comes on the heels of Christian Walker's groin injury and Kevin Cron's hamstring injury. The injuries impact the organizational depth at first base, which could benefit Smith in the short term.

Smith will be a part of the Diamondbacks' 60-man summer camp.

EDGE Analysis

Smith, who is not on the 40-man roster, was part of big-league camp this spring but reassigned to the minors near the end of March. The 24-year-old's regular progression would have led him to the Triple-A level in this season, so he'll need to show big strides in the power department in summer camp to get an early shot in the majors this season.

The Diamondbacks reassigned Smith to minor-league camp.

EDGE Analysis

Smith performed well in his first major-league camp, going 8-for-21 (.381) with one extra-base hit, two walks, two RBI and two runs scored over 13 Cactus League games. After a full season at Double-A Jackson, it seems that Smith will make the next logical progression to Triple-A Reno in 2020, but Kevin Cron is already on hand to play first base for the Aces. Smith's been remarkably consistent over his first three professional seasons, but his power numbers aren't what one might expect from a first baseman. He added more gap power in 2019 and could benefit from the notoriously hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League in 2020.
