2025 Fantasy Outlook
A sleeper in the Brewers' system who was poached by the White Sox with the first pick in the 2024 Rule 5 draft, Smith has a chance to be a viable rotation option for the White Sox as early as this season. He'll need to be kept on the big-league roster (or injured list) all season, otherwise the White Sox would have to return him to the Brewers. Smith, who has a 93-mph fastball and throws a pair of breaking balls, logged 94.1 innings across Double-A and Triple-A, with all his work as a starter (16 starts) coming at Double-A. He logged a 2.96 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 74 strikeouts in 67 innings as a starter, and also struck out 39 in 27.1 innings as a reliever. Smith may be eased into his big-league career as a low-leverage multi-inning reliever, but he could also get some starts in the first half. Read Past Outlooks
Logs scoreless outing
Smith (2-3) earned the win Tuesday, allowing three hits and two walks over 5.1 scoreless innings against the Tigers. He struck out six.
ANALYSIS
Smith neutralized the Tigers' offense, recording his fourth scoreless outing of the season. The right-hander has impressed in his rookie campaign, posting a 2.45 ERA and 1.14 WHIP across 62.1 innings. While the White Sox remain at the bottom of the AL Central, Smith has been a clear bright spot.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Top pick in Rule 5 Draft?
According to Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com, the White Sox are expected to select Smith with the first pick in the Rule 5 Draft on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The Brewers elected not to add the 24-year-old to the 40-man roster in November, and it appears they'll be losing him to the White Sox. Smith worked as both a starter and reliever between the Double-A and Triple-A levels in 2024 and had a 3.05 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 113:29 K:BB across 94.1 innings between the two levels.
