Aidan Smith Launches Ninth Long Ball, Extends Hitting Streak
4 months agoSeattle Mariners outfield prospect Aidan Smith went 2-for-5 with a home run on Wednesday evening. This was his ninth round-tripper of the campaign, and he extended his incredible hitting streak to 15 games. During this stretch, the former fourth-round selection has posted a .375/.489/.611 line with three long balls and 14 RBI. The 19-year-old has taken a significant step forward in his second stint at Single-A this season as he posted a poor .184 AVG in 14 games at this level last summer. The Lovejoy HS product should be nearing a High-A promotion in the coming weeks due to his stellar play this season and is worth taking a look at in dynasty leagues as he is a rising star in a deep Seattle system.
