The only thing I can think of is that Rocker and Liberatore priced themselves out of the pick (Rocker comes from money and Vandy commits are notoriously hard signs) and TB has a huge ass bonus pool to move around).
I mean the Jays don't have an Ace (or even a legit #1) and those guys are damn near impossible to acquire in Trade and bite you in the ass in free agency. I would have thought that the Jays would have gone for an arm with #1 potential.
