Brother Elephants of the Chinese Professional Baseball League
(CPBL).
Career
Smith played
2000 MLB Draft. He played in 14 games for the Blue Jays in 2002, starting six and posting an earned run average of 6.62. The Minnesota Twins acquired Smith from the Philadelphia Phillies during the 2005-2006 offseason, but he was not on the Twins' 40-man roster. However, inconsistent pitching from Scott Baker and Boof Bonser and shoulder problems for Brad Radke prompted the Twins to call him up to the major leagues
on August 2, 2006.
Smith signed with the
Brother Elephants team in Taiwan's Chinese Professional Baseball League
(CPBL).
For the 2010 season, Mike played for the Brockton Rox of the Can-Am.[3] He led the Cam-Am in wins and ERA, going 12–3 with a 2.87 ERA in 125.1 innings. He was named to the Cam-Am All-Star Team, along with teammates Melvin Falu, Mike Wlodarczyk, and Chris Grossman. The four Rox players were the most named to the All-Star team out of any other team in the Can-Am.
