Will Smith Slashing .320/.376/.480 Through May
3 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith has had a strong month of May. He's slashing .320/.376/.480 across the month and has recorded nine multi-hit games. He's been lacking a bit in the power department so far this year. He hit eight home runs over 37 games last year. This year, through 42 games, he has just five home runs. His xSLG is down from .539 last year to .466 this year and his barrel rate is down from 12.9% last year to 9.6% this year. At this current pace, Smith should still turn out as one of the most valuable catchers in fantasy, but it looks like his power output might come up noticeably short of expectations unfortunately.
