Well this sucks... In all honesty, I don't think I would have even wasted a 5th Rounder on Marv Smith, but he's the newest addition to the Cougars anyways. A one year starter at Portland Tech, my scout and OSA really aren't a fan of his, but the mock thinks he's the 11th best player in the pool. I barely even scouted Smith, so not much I can add on him, but the power looks okay. Still, very little value in a 22-year-old corner outfielder who screams bench bat. I guess what's cool is he's from Montana, and I'm not sure there have been any FABL players born in Montana. Granted, I'm not sure he'll make it either.

RF Ray Powell
School: Little Rock
Commit School: Spokane State
1937: .420/.505/.716, 106 PA, 12 2B, 4 3B, 2 HR, 23 RBI, 24 SB
Career: .426/.505/.693, 213 PA, 24 2B, 7 3B, 3 HR, 46 RBI, 54

I didn't think it could have turned out any worse, but somehow, the stars aligned and it did... I liked three of the four players in both of the slots I picked, and both times got the player I didn't want. Of course, both my scout and OSA say bench player again, and Powell is another guy I wouldn't have taken with a pick before the fifth. In fact, I have never taken two corner outfielders in the five picks, and Ed Reyes is the only corner outfielder I've ever taken in the first two rounds. I also barely scouted Powell, and while at least Smith can play center, Powell is strictly a corner outfielder. He does triple a lot, so that's cool, but nothing really else interesting about him.

Whelp, number one farm was fun while it lasted...
