8 of the Jays first 9 picks are ranked in BA's Top 500...so I'm not anticipating any big underslot savings. It's not like they're drafting the hotdog vendor's nephew.
I'm willing to wait and see how these guys develop, but I'm not going to pretend that I'm a big fan of this philosophy so far. Unless...as we've mentioned, there are some tricks up the Jays sleeves in rounds 11 + and underslot signings.
I'm a little underwhelmed as well. But this draft is far from over. I'm curious to see what they do today...and if they do heavy College, will we see some underslot deals and high end talent in rounds 11-40?
And then the most important part....who do they actually sign?
