Will Smith Injury: Will have to manage bone bruise
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Smith has a bone bruise in his right hand that he'll likely have to manage for the rest of the season, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
A CT scan cleared Smith of any fractures, but he's likely to be held out of action for the entirety of the Dodgers' weekend series with the Orioles and could have to deal with discomfort down the stretch of the season. Dalton Rushing will start at catcher Friday, and Ben Rortvedt has been called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City to serve as Rushing's backup while Smith remains day-to-day.
