Smithson was as sharp as I've seen him last Spring in a start vs Hendersonville. He worked up to 87 with sharp breaking ball and a biting splitter while going CG and 10+ Ks. This summer he ran it up to 90 at Lakepoint before committing to Trevecca. He'll slot as the number two behind Connor Martin on a very talented Goodpasture squad, who will be on a redemption tour after an early bow out in the 2021 postseason.

6’1, 162-pound RHP teased some of his swing and miss stuff, generating swing and misses on 5 of 12 swings, including a swing and miss on each of his offerings. Medium, athletic frame w/ some present lower half strength, upper body projection, super projectable. Pitches from a full wind-up into over the top release and short head whack. Lands hard on his front leg w/ occasional rotation, learning to stay through with pitch with his lower half. Downhill plane. Straight FB shows occasional sink. Medium downer CB w/ proper shape and rotation. CH w/ fade and sink, occasional proper arm-speed. Sprayed the zone on this day, tools to be a strike-thrower with reps.
