A's cut five from spring roster: The Athletics optioned C Landon Powell to Triple-A Sacramento and reassigned RHP Arnold Leon, LHP Jay Marshall, LHP Ryan Wing and RHP Brad Ziegler to minor league camp Thursday. (Updated 03/06/2008).
Injury Report

Fantasy Analysis
Powell is a big catching prospect -- in talent as well as size. The switch-hitting backstop hit 11 homers in 60 games with Double-A Midland last season (and another three homers in four games at Triple-A Sacramento), but he is coming off a torn knee ligament for a second time. Marshall and Wing are decent bullpen arms who will be used this season, but in general all these players can be ignored on Draft Day. (Updated 03/06/2008).
