Mallex Smith (undisclosed) likely out for Mariners until weekend

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mallex Smith (undisclosed) will probably remain out until the weekend.

What It Means:

Smith arrived at summer camp on Monday but the Mariners haven't provided a reason for his late arrival or continued exclusion. The 27-year-old led the majors with 46 steals last season but he also had a career-worst .227 batting average and 24.9 strikeout percentage. Dylan Moore and Joe Hudson are also expected to remain out until the weekend after arriving on Monday.

numberFire's models expect Smith to bat .251 across 199 plate appearances this season with 2 homers, 15 RBI, 24 runs scored, and 16 steals.
