Analysis:
Smith came into camp battling stiffness in his legs, but has fully recovered from the ailment, having tallied five strikeouts in four innings of work without allowing a run this spring. Smith is on track to reprise his role as the setup man in the Angels' bullpen in 2015 after notching a career-best 1.81 ERA in 74.2 innings last year.
