Red Sox's Carson Smith: Activated from DL
Smith (forearm) was activated from the disabled list ahead of Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe reports.
Analysis:
Coming off a fantastic 2015 campaign in Seattle, Smith missed the first month of the season due to a flexor mass in his right forearm. He figures to get most of his work in the seventh or eighth innings, competing with Koji Uehara and Junichi Tazawa for hold opportunities. Smith pitched 1.2 flawless innings during his brief rehab assignment with Double-A Portland.
