The war of words between Stephen A. Smith and Jonathan Papelbon has continued. The former Boston Red Sox closer went off on Smith after he criticized Mike Trout’s lack of availability following the three-time All-Star’s meniscus injury. Smith said he was “disgusted with his lack of availability,” asking how Trout could “always” be injured. “With these oblique injuries, you’re running around bases, catching one, then you’re running out for a fly ball, and all of a sudden, something gets tweaked. And I would never think to call you a racist,” Smith added.
