As y'know, Dr. D is Justin Smoak's biggest fan.  It says here that all he needs to do is relax into his game, not grimace so much, let the game come to him.
It's not clear to me *when* that will be.  
Carlos Pena, a very similar player, puttered along at 110 OPS+ for 400 games until the light came on, and then rang up several MVP-vote seasons.
I kind of fear the prospect of Smoak having one full 110 OPS+ season in 2012 before he starts really mashing.
