08/12/2012 - College PREP - Raleigh, NC Andre is a solid, broad 1B with a strong lower half that will graduate in 2015. Feet are active as he makes the routine plays and displays clean hands. He needs to be more aggressive, increase foot speed, and present hands more out front to continue to improve defensive grade. Throws are accurate but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, Smith shows a balanced approach with rhythm. Swing path is level and he makes consistent contact, mainly to the pull side. For hitting / power grades to continue to improve, he needs to work to stay inside the ball, utilizing all fields and use his lower half more. With 3 years to further develop, Smith has abilities with time and room to improve.
