Good day 1 of the draft for the Jays. I'm not overjoyed with the 1st round pick... mostly because a HS pitcher expected to go overslot is a hell of a risk profile (plus Beede still makes me edgey about Vandy commits)... but the talent is unquestionably there. Tomas at 77 is a coup and the two college bats look like reasonable picks where they were taken. Given that Tomas and Barriera look to both be overshot and the others at slot I would expect that we'll see a lot of college seniors and/or overdrafts in rounds 3-10.
