Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts says it is improbable that catcher Will Smith will return to the lineup before the All-Star break. Both reports cite Roberts’ comments made on Wednesday, framing the decision as based on the current situation surrounding Smith’s status. The articles do not provide additional details about the nature of his injury or recovery timeline beyond the expectation that he will not be ready in time for the midseason event. With the All-Star break approaching, the Dodgers appear to be planning for a period in which Smith will not be available, while his return timing remains uncertain. Neither report includes a specific return date, timetable updates, or further information from the team beyond Roberts’ assessment. The information shared is consistent across outlets: Roberts does not anticipate Smith’s return before the All-Star break.
