Injury Stalls Shane Smith’s Comeback Attempt as White Sox Rotation Finds Its Groove
It’s been a rough start to the season for Shane Smith. After earning the Opening Day nod for the Chicago White Sox, he was quickly demoted to Triple-A Charlotte just three starts into the season, and now, he’s dealing with another setback.
On Sunday, it was reported that Smith had suffered a right rotator cuff strain, which put him out of commission for several weeks.
While the shoulder issue could have been a factor in his early struggles, the timing couldn’t be worse for Smith as he works to regain his footing.
