Seth Smith News
Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos gave general manager Dan Duquette approval to seek trades for outfielder Seth Smith and the team's top relievers, which includes Zach Britton, Brad Brach and Darren O'Day, according to sources. The veteran Smith is hitting .260 with 10 home runs and 21 RBI and could be a valuable bat against righties for a contending team. He's only useful in deep mixed and AL-only leagues in the right matchups. Brach could be back in the ninth inning full time if the O's deal Britton at this year's deadline. Stay tuned.
It was a tough day for the Baltimore Orioles offense on Wednesday. Against Marcus Stroman and the Toronto Blue Jays, they mustered only five hits (all singles) in the loss. Trey Mancini and Seth Smith each went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, while the rest of the lineup went 1-for-23. Power outages like this aren't too common for Baltimore; they scored 24 runs over their previous four games. They face another tough task on Thursday against J.A. Happ, who has thrown three straight quality starts. Despite this, keep your top Orioles bats locked into your lineups.
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Seth Smith remains out of the Orioles lineup Thursday because of a stiff back, and if there is no improvement by the weekend, the O's might put Smith on the 10-day disabled list. The veteran outfielder has not played since Monday, and outfielder Joey Rickard is starting and leading off on Thursday. "It's more mid-back than lower back," manager Buck Showalter told reporters Thursday. "He's had some just general lack of range-of-motion." Smith has a .788 OPS this year and an .877 OPS over the last 14 days, but his main value is as a low-cost option in DFS.
