Marlins' Josh D. Smith: Sent to alternate training site

Smith was optioned to the Marlins' alternate training site after Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader.

The 30-year-old didn't make an appearance during the matinee, and he was optioned to make room for the promotion of Game 2 starter Sixto Sanchez. Smith has appeared in two games for Miami this year and has allowed two runs on two hits with a 4:1 K:BB over 1.2 innings.
