Darren
Smith

6-foot, 195-pound sturdy frame. Has some current strength in his build and showed off some solid power with a peak exit velocity of 95 in BP. Begins in a tall closed stance before coiling in towards his back hip. Lower half uses knee knock load, pulls barrel back with a compact scap move, keeping hands tight to his body. Takes a controlled stride into landing. Barreled up some balls with loud contact. Up the middle approach with a level finish thru contact. Behind the plate, had consistent pop times of 2.25-2.36. Has sure consistent hands, solid footworkt and a developing exchange. Wide setup with some flexibility. Slightly staggered in his lower half prior to getting out of crouch. Used a short arm action and a low ¾ slot.
