Burch Taylor Smith (born April 12, 1990) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization.

He has also played in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) for the Saitama Seibu Lions, and in the KBO League for the Hanwha Eagles.

[10] Smith made his Major League debut Saturday, May 11, 2013, against the Tampa Bay Rays as he was called up from Double-A.

[11] In his Major League debut, Smith pitched a clean first inning, striking out his first two batters, but he did not record an out in the second, giving up six earned runs on five hits.

He was sent down to the Tucson Padres of the Triple-A Pacific Coast League (PCL) on May 22 after allowing 15 earned runs in three starts.

Smith made seven more starts for Tucson, striking out 10 in his final appearance, and then returned to the Padres' rotation with the September roster expansion.

The New York Mets selected Smith in the Rule 5 draft on December 14, 2017, and immediately traded him to the Kansas City Royals for cash considerations.

[20] Smith picked up wins in his first two appearances for the Athletics, in which he allowed two hits and a walk in three scoreless innings combined.

He was credited with his first career save on August 7, 2020, by throwing the last three innings of a 7–2 win over the Houston Astros, during which he allowed only one hit and no runs.

[26] On March 27, after exercising the upward mobility clause in his contract, he was traded to the Miami Marlins in exchange for cash considerations and subsequently selected to the 40–man roster.

[30] After two scoreless appearances for the Triple–A Norfolk Tides, Baltimore selected Smith's contract, adding him to the active roster.

On October 31, Smith was removed from the 40–man roster and sent outright to Norfolk, but rejected the assignment in favor of free agency.
