The Boston Red Sox on Tuesday released first baseman Dominic Smith, a former first-round draft pick who became expendable when first baseman Triston Casas was reinstated from the 60-day injured list on Friday.
Smith, 29, was designated for assignment on Friday after batting .237 with six home runs, 34 RBIs, a .317 on-base percentage, a .390 slugging percentage and a .706 OPS in 83 games.
The left-hander also filled in as a pitcher and did not allow a run with two hits and one walk in three innings over three games.
