Should i play kevin smith

The year-old went yard in the fourth inning to give Toronto a lead. Smith also committed an error in the sixth that ultimately allowed Detroit to get on the board, but starter Jose Berrios was able to limit the damage there. Smith has just three hits in 19 at-bats this season in his first taste of major-league action. He should see regular playing time at third base with Cavan Biggio elbow and Santiago Espinal hip both on the injured list. Smith will start at third base and bat eighth Sunday against the Tigers.

After making starts at three different positions -- left field, third base and first base -- over Toronto's last three contests, Smith could find a more permanent home at the hot corner in the short term. With Santiago Espinal hip joining Cavan Biggio elbow on the injured list Sunday, Smith's only competition for reps at third base is likely utility man Breyvic Valera, whose playing time has fallen by the wayside of late.

For the second day in a row, the Blue Jays promoted a utility man from Triple-A to help fill out the big-league bench, as Smith joins Otto Lopez in Toronto.

The year-old has seen the bulk of his playing time at shortstop and third base this season, but he'll be an option at second base or the corner-outfield spots if the Blue Jays want to give one of their regulars a day off. Smith flashed an interesting fantasy profile at Triple-A -- he hit. Smith will be a part of the Blue Jays ' man roster. Smith progressed to Double-A in , where he hit.

He was invited to big-league camp this spring and went 4-for with six RBI and 11 strikeouts. The year-old will get a chance to develop with the man roster once the season gets underway. The year-old was mired in a miserable slump to begin May, going 0-for over an game stretch before breaking out with two hits Wednesday, including a homer, and Thursday's three-hit performance. Smith's OPS is still. Smith is slashing.

The Jays' No. There's really nothing in his overall line to like -- his BB:K is particularly rough -- and the year-old isn't even young for the level. The sample is small and plenty of players have struggled in their first crack at Double-A before bouncing back, so it's far too early to give up on the shortstop.

That said, if his struggles continue into the summer, his prospect status will start to tumble. Mitchell RB-SF. Williams RB-KC. Kittle TE-SF. Renfrow WR-LV. Expert Voting Can't Decide?
