Overview
Drafted as a senior, Farrow played two years for Florida Gulf Coast, then went to Miami for his junior year, then back to Florida Gulf Coast. He generally put up good power numbers with a lot of strikeouts. As a senior he hit 375/504/750 with 15 home runs, enough to earn him second team All America honors. He increased his walk rate to 16%. His strikeout rate of 21% was a good deal lower than his previous seasons. Like the Pirates’ other day three draftees, he wasn’t ranked among the top draft prospects by Baseball America or MLB Pipeline.
