Designated for assignment
Smith was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The 33-year-old had sporadic playing time recently, and he'll be cast off the 40-man roster after Travis d'Arnaud (thumb) was reinstated from the 60-day IL on Wednesday. Smith has appeared in 33 games with Tampa Bay and Atlanta this season, and he's hit .168 with three doubles, eight runs and three RBI.

The veteran catcher appeared in 17 games for the Rays last season, posting a career-high .378 OBP and .452 SLG in that limited sample. Smith has never carried a good defensive reputation, a liability borne out by most metrics, but his bat has earned him playing time in each of the last five big-league seasons, albeit for three different organizations. Tampa Bay cut him loose from the 40-man roster this offseason but then brought him back on a minor-league deal, but that doesn't guarantee him a spot with the Rays. Francisco Mejia, a catcher with a similar bat-first profile who is six years younger and a switch hitter, came over from San Diego in the Blake Snell trade. Unless he significantly outperforms Mejia in camp, Smith could find himself opening the season as organizational depth at Triple-A.
