    Smit has no real college option. His team didn't even make the state playoffs, but he showed plus stuff, at times the best in the state. His fastball velocity comes and goes, at times sitting at 91-92 mph, and he has a loose arm that leads scout to project more future velo. Smit's slider is even more inconsistent, but he has flashed a plus breaker at times. He has room to fill out his frame and was considered signable.
