Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • LHPPosition Projection

08/11/2008 - College PREP - San Diego, CA Troy has upside on the mound due to great arm action and smooth mechanics. He is a finesse pitcher that will make his living beating pitchers with action on his pitches and location. He has three decent pitches that should develop, giving him good options in attacking lefties and righties. He shows a direct approach with his body and maintains good tempo and rhythm throughout his delivery. A solid long-toss program should help him increase his velocity and allow for sharper movement on his pitches. With the bat, he also shows well as he again, demonstrates a balanced approach to hitting. He is strong, flashing plus bat speed and gets good extension through contact. He uses all fields appropriately, but will drive the ball more consistently to the opposite gap, upon letting the ball travel more. A few areas of improvement are getting him to load and stride on time, as his stride foot tends to be late. And lastly, he has a lengthy, sweeping swing that can certainly be shorter, adding more bat speed and perhaps resulting in home run power. Overall, Troy will gain plenty of attention from college scouts. He is a high commodity for college programs, and one that will continue to develop physically.

06/19/2008 - Omaha Pro Select Training and Tournament - 2008 Smith topped at 78 mph with his fastball. Did a good job of locating the pitch, and worked down in the zone for the most part. He also located his 69-71 changeup well, and showed a downer type breaking ball in the 57-60 range. His delivery was balanced, and featured good direction to the plate. He got good extension out front, and showed a solid overall arm stroke. In addition, his demeanor and mound presence were very good. At the plate, he hit from a balanced stance and showed a very good stroke. Bat speed was good, and the ball got off his bat with life at times. Overall, a capable player both on the mound and with the bat - making him a solid college follow.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
