View Draft Report
A lefthanded hitter who batted better than .700 this spring, Smith has good "now" hitting tools, though he has not shown it against upper-level competition yet. He has a balanced, compact swing and promising bat speed. He's an average runner presently and figures to become below average as his body matures. He is a solid defender in left field who gets good jumps and takes direct routes.
