Senior 1B Austen Smith drafted in 33rd round by Marlins.
I hoped the senior would be drafted sooner. He had a very good year for us.
I also thought he would have been drafted higher. He is a solid player.
A scouting report I saw had Smith as the 67th best 1B in the draft. Kentucky, Miss. State, & Vandy had top ten 1B candidates.

The pro scouts see something about him they do not like I guess. I did not think he would be an early round pick. I expected rounds 12-20. He had a solid glove at 1B and was one of the best hitters in the SEC. He led Alabama in most hitting stats. I find it hard to believe there is 66 better prospects at 1B but I am a loyal biased fan and not a scout.
The Pensacola, Fla., native finished his senior season at Alabama with a team-high .316 batting average, while tying for the team lead with 39 RBI. Smith, who was a Golden Spikes Award Midseason Watch List honoree, posted a team-high .487 slugging percentage, that included six home runs and 14 doubles (second on the team). He also led the 2014 Tide with a .426 on base percentage with a team-high 29 walks and he was hit by a pitch 13 times.
