Drew Smith Ejected After Sticky-Stuff Check
1 year agoNew York Mets reliever Drew Smith was ejected from Tuesday's game before even throwing a pitch after the umpires checked him for sticky stuff as he was entering the contest, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. The league will have to issue an automatic 10-game ban, but it is unclear if the 29-year-old will appeal. Over 23.2 innings pitched this season, Smith has posted a 4.18 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 28 punchouts, two saves, and eight holds. He's a solid arm in save-and-hold leagues, so fantasy managers in those formats should stay tuned.
