Cape Cod- The righthanded hitter has swatted four home runs with a .491 SLG so far this summer. However, that power has been accompanied by 28 strikeouts in 70 plate appearances for a 40% K rate. Behind the plate Smith looked to be a below average receiver with fringe arm strength.
Transfer from Incarnate Word. Physically strong frame whose bat is his carrying tool. Currently with the bat he has present in game power with the ability to hit the ball over the fence to all parts of the park. Simple set up and load in the box, takes a small stride and has effortless bat speed through the zone. Behind the dish Smith is continuing to refine his abilities as a catcher. Has strong arm behind the plate with good carry to 2B on his throw downs. Looked much better handling “stuff” at the Junior College All Star Game, than had previously seen. (Haig)
