Mallex Smith sitting for Mariners Sunday
The Seattle Mariners did not list Mallex Smith as a starter for Sunday's game against the Houston Astros.
What It Means:
Smith has been an inconsistent starter so far this season after appearing in 175 games for the Mariners over the past two seasons. Today he'll take a seat while Tim Lopes starts in left field.
Smith led the league in stolen bases last season, but has only 2 stolen bases so far in 2020 over the course of his 47 plate appearances. He's struggling so far in 2020, and has a lowly 0.133 batting average.
