Derek Smith: 3B, (2026) Troy Athens, MI. 5-foot-9, 180-pound. (62.2 mph bat speed average). (18.1 mph hand speed average). Started in a tall active stance with a small load, then used a closed small leg kick. Bat speed was raw, and had a long swing plane. He barreled up some balls with some loud contact. Raw while in the infield, made throws up to 72 mph; showed raw firm hands, choppy average feet, and a developing exchange. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were raw developing. Solid on the mound, showing good arm speed he had an over-the-top high ¾ arm angle with a short clean arm action. Slow-tempo tilt-and-topple type pitcher and shows some effort. Tall balance point with even shoulders. Lands closed with recoil clean finish. (Max spin 1942; Avg 1887).
