Scouting Report
8/26/17 - 5-foot-9, 165-pound right-handed hitter initiated swing from a neutral set up with a lift-and-replace stride. Head is still and Smith was able to barrel multiple balls in batting practice. He recorded a bat exit velocity of 80 mph. Back elbow leak created some barrel drag. Separation was limited by passive weight shift and hip turn. Smith would benefit from closing back foot in set up as well as being more aggressive with his lower half while leaving hands back to achieve better separation.
Defensively, hands are adequate. Smith demonstrates commitment to working bottom up and out front. He shows good foot work and a clean transfer.
