FIRST YEAR PLAYER DRAFT!
The first pick goes to the Rangers.
The Jays are picking 28th.
The Rangers took Ethan Robinson, a HS Starting Pitcher from Tennessee with monster upside.
Toronto's picks by Round.
1. Jerry Omara. A High School pitcher originally from Uganda. He has the potential to be a top of the rotation guy.
2. Collin Welch. SP from Indiana University. #2 potential.
3. Riley Jackson. HS Catcher from Florida. Average defense but tremendous power potential.
4. Stone Lawless. HS Catcher out of Alabama. A bit of a hacker but potential to be an average big leaguer.
5. Tyler Ball. HS SP from Utah. Bottom of the rotation guy as we are getting more into 'draft and hope' territory.
6. Travis Sykora. HS SS from Texas.
7. Grayson Hitt. SP from the University of Alabama.
8. Christian Gordon. RP from Liberty University.
9. Collin Bosley-Smith. SP from Duke University.
