Will Smith's recent exit from the Cactus League game against the Reds due to a knee injury has raised some eyebrows among Dodgers fans. With Smith already dealing with a lingering ankle issue, it begs the question: how much can the Dodgers rely on him this season?
Dave Roberts has been candid about the challenges Smith has faced, suggesting that his injuries may have impacted his performance last year. Given that Smith's second-half numbers were significantly lower than his first half, could we be witnessing the beginning of a decline for one of the Dodgers' key players?
Moreover, with Manny Machado boldly claiming that the Padres can overtake the Dodgers in the NL West by 2025, how crucial is it for the Dodgers to have a healthy and productive Will Smith? If he continues to struggle with injuries, could this open the door for the Padres or other teams in the division?
Let's discuss! What are your thoughts on Will Smith's current situation? Do you think he can bounce back and regain his form, or is it time for the Dodgers to start looking for alternatives? And how do you feel about Machado's prediction? Are the Padres really a threat to the Dodgers' dominance in the NL West? Share your insights and let's dive into this conversation!
