Cam Smith News: Out of lineup again Saturday

Published on August 23, 2025

Smith isn't in the starting lineup against Baltimore on Saturday.

Smith is sitting for the third time in Houston's past seven games, with all three of the absences coming against right-handers. The rookie has hit a rough patch at the plate, hitting a paltry .048 (1-for-21) over his past eight contests. With Smith out of the lineup Saturday, Jesus Sanchez is starting in right field for the Astros.
