Smith is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith started the first two games of the series and will sit for the finale after going 1-for-6 with two walks, a solo homer and an additional run scored. Dalton Rushing will start behind the plate and bat eighth versus Cincinnati lefty Nick Lodolo.

Smith went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Smith's solo shot initiated a four-run rally in the sixth inning that helped the Dodgers secure the game. The catcher has had a rough August, going just 10-for-63 (.159) while adding three extra-base hits, nine RBI and a 12:22 BB:K over 19 games this month. The recent fade has taken a little of the shine off his season-long production, though he's still at a .295/.403/.494 slash line with 16 homers, 59 RBI, 61 runs scored and two stolen bases over 104 contests. Smith isn't in danger of losing the starting role to Dalton Rushing, though Smith has seen fairly standard rest once or twice a week throughout the year.

EDGE Analysis

Smith added insurance runs with his RBI singles in the seventh and ninth innings. He snapped out of a small slump with his first multi-hit performance since Aug. 11; he was 1-for-his-last-14 entering play Tuesday. Smith has just one extra-base hit over his last 12 games. Still, he owns a terrific .308/.415/.511 slash line with 56 RBI and 59 runs scored through 98 games.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will get a breather while Dalton Rushing serves behind home plate and bats ninth for Monday's series opener.

Smith went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional RBI and two walks in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith helped the Dodgers get off to a fast start with a two-run home run in the first inning. He added another RBI on a bases-loaded walk in the fourth, but the backstop's production wasn't enough to prevent his team from getting swept in the season series. The good news for Smith is that he appears to be getting his swing back; since gong 0-for-13 during a four-game hitless streak from Aug. 4 to Aug. 10, the All-Star catcher has gone 3-for-8 with two walks across his subsequent three games.
