Will Smith Played First Half With Broken Rib
1 year agoLos Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith acknowledged in a weekend interview that he suffered a fractured rib at the end of April after getting hit by a pitch and played through it, per the Orange County Register's Bill Plunkett. Despite this, the 28-year-old made his first All-Star game after batting .279 with 13 home runs and 46 RBI. Oddly, Smith's second-half production has dropped off, potentially due to swing mechanic changes to compensate. Either way, he has once again been a solid fantasy contributor this season.
