Smith went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in a playoff game for short-season Hillsboro on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
It was the first professional home run for Smith in what will likely be his final appearance of the minor-league season, as Hillsboro was eliminated from the Northwest League postseason after losing to Eugene in a best-of-three series. The first baseman, who the Diamondbacks nabbed with the seventh overall pick in the first-year player draft back in June, finished the regular season at Hillsboro with .318/.401/.415 slash line. The Diamondbacks remain hopeful that the 21-year-old will tap into more power production as he ages and adds strength, which would only enhance his future fantasy outlook.
