29 Earl Smith - The slowest man in history? Topic

I'm guessing this has been covered in the past but had to ask about it.
I'm in one of the boxscores league and was going to use the 29 Earl Smith as a PT/Backup Catcher.
Nice stats until I noticed his speed is a 15.

Did he break a leg in spring training but play the season with a crutch?
He had 8 doubles, 0 caught stealing and 0 GIDP so what makes this one season so extraordinarily slower than all his other seasons.
Can anyone explain this and more importantly does it make him unusable?
