Before Thursday's rainout, when the probable starter for Saturday was TBA and Hagen Smith was under consideration, one of the stopping points to consider was whether it was wise to make a prospect working on his control face a veteran and disciplined Dodgers batting order in his big league debut. The defending champs' offense is not at full-strength, but they are top-five in walk rate and bottom-five in chase rate once more. Smith is making his start in Charlotte, and even at his worst, it'd...
