The family wrote in a post Saturday that she "fought until the end" and "her life served a great purpose in her short 5 months on this earth."
Taken by Oakland with the 24th pick on the first round of the 2004 amateur draft, Powell played for the Athletics from 2009-11 and spent last year at Houston's Triple-A team in Oklahoma City. He agreed to a minor league contract with the Mets on Jan. 18.
