View Draft Report
Smith played three years at Division III Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas, and was the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference pitcher of the year in his sophomore season. He transferred to Arizona and was expected to compete for a regular rotation spot after sitting 95-99 mph, touching 100, during the 2020 fall season. The velocity dropped to the low-to-mid 90s in the spring and he struggled to consistently throw strikes, walking 18 batters in 28 innings. Smith complements the fastball with a slider that flashes plus. His past record and power arm will get him drafted by a team hoping to get him back to where he was before the 2021 regular season.
