SS/3B Gavin Smith (Basha, 2024)
6-foot 175 pounds, great athlete with loose actions. Athletic build with room to add strength. (Running) 6.94 runner in the 60. Clean running form, will see speed increase with age. (Offense) RH. Max EV 95. Max Dist. 349. Athletic and loose set up at the plate. Stands taller with hands held above the shoulder and rhythm. Stride is direct to pitch, turns the lead knee inward and lands softly. Handsy hitter, room to incorporate more lower half involvement. Bat path works best to oppo gap, struggles to get to balls on the top half and inner third of the zone. Balls in the lower half of the zone and out over the plate, he does a really good job getting extension through the balls and getting some flight to the gap. (Defense) (IF) RH. IF velo 81. Good build for the left side. Athleticism and glove skills work. Soft hands with give into the body while fielding and stays fluent to target. Moves around the diamond well, quiet actions. Arm strength has room for development on left side, glove/footwork show he can play left side.
Game action: 1-4 1B
Gavin Smith (Basha, 2024)
Athletic build with wiry strength and much room to grow. Smooth actions across the board, handsy and athletic. 7.23 runner in the 60. Long and consistent strides, speed should improve over time. (IF) 82 mph IF velo. Good athleticism at SS position with ability to play all 3 IF spots. Glove is soft and adjustable to hops. Moves well laterally. Arm will play from the left side. Twitchy at SS position with upside. Best on balls that he has to move to get to, the ball right at him gets his feet stuck at times. (Hitting) Max EV 91.8 mph. Max Dist. 342 feet. Athletic set up in the box. Shoulder width base that is slightly open with knocked knees. Hands held above the shoulder with a flat bat. Small knee to knee leg kick stride that gets him back to square position. Very loose and handsy swing mechanics. Gap-to-gap type hitter with ability to beat an outfielder on occasion.
Game Results: 1-4 SB
