August 4, 2025 7:36 PM : Smith (oblique) will take live batting practice Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Smith has been shelved since July 6 due to a right oblique strain but is set to take a notable step forward Tuesday. If he emerges from Tuesday's baseball activities without suffering any type of setback, the team could get him live at-bats during a minor-league game Thursday, per Weiner.
