View More NewsJosh Smith avoids arbitration with Rangers
Josh Smith and the Texas Rangers avoided arbitration as the two sides settled on a $3.225 million contract for the 2026 season.
Fantasy Impact
Smith has played his first four seasons in Texas and has reached double digits in home runs and stolen bases in each of the last two years. He batted .251 last season with 10 home runs and 12 stolen bases in 563 plate appearances. Smith played everywhere except pitcher and catcher last season, so he will occupy his usual super-utility role in 2026. He should start nearly every day and hit towards the bottom of the Texas lineup.
