Nik said:The Jays go after another high ceiling pick by taking Gunnar Hoglund with the 19th pick. By all accounts would have been a top 10 pick if he didn't hurt his arm and need Tommy John surgery this year.

With the farm system in pretty good shape based on most evaluations of I've read, glad they took the opportunity to swing for the fences rather than opting for a safer pick.

L K said:I hope they can grab an outfield prospect or two with some upside. That's probably the other place the organization is lacking in depth. Auston Martin might still end up in CF instead of the infield but they really don't have any tantilizing OF prospects.
Focus on drafting BPA but I'd like to see them bolster their depth there this draft.
I know nothing of draft strategy in the MLB. Is this good or bad?Nik said:Well, through the first 10 rounds of the draft the Jays have taken 8 pitchers and just one position player. Of the 8 pitchers, 6 are college pitchers, one is a junior college pitcher and they took one high school pitcher.
In the 7th round they took an outfielder, so I guess LK got something.

Significantly Insignificant said:It's probably similar to drafting 5 goalies in an NHL draft. Which is better than walking to the podium and saying "decline".

The video probably suggested this, but he said he's signing.
