Sam Smith is a 5’9’’ 150 lb. 2028 out of Portland OR.  Primary LHP/OF with a strong accurate arm from the outfield.  Comes through the ball well and keeps his feet moving.  Takes good angles and comes around the ball with good footwork.  Good rhythm through the ball and plenty of athleticism to play all outfield positions.  Leadership traits that control the outfield.

At the plate, starts with an open stance and quiet hands from the left side.  Pretty swing.  Lets the ball travel, has quick hands and allows the barrel to stay through the zone.  Line drive hitter to all fields.  Aggressive base runner with good speed (7.1 seconds in the 60).

Left-handed pitcher that works downhill on the mound with easy motion.  Primarily works from the stretch. Fastball in the mid 70s with natural arm side run.  Utilizes his slider in the high 60s as a swing and miss pitch.  Has plenty of projectability.
