Summary
The Arizona Diamondbacks are bringing back first baseman Pavin Smith from the injured list, a crucial move as they desperately need left-handed power with a tough stretch ahead. Smith, sidelined since Opening Day after elbow surgery, hit over .360 against the Dodgers last year — exactly the boost they need. To make room, Tim Tawa is sent down to Triple-A, a tough but necessary sacrifice. With a recent sweep by the Mariners and a looming series against the hot Dodgers, Smith’s return could be the spark that reignites their offense and turns their season around.
