I think toussaint is ranked 17th right now. I know I've seen his name mentioned quite a bit. Have we been linked to him? Where are you finding the late rounders. I always have trouble finding anything past the top 100
Toussaint has been linked to the Jays for some time now. HS RHP with a projectable frame and two potential plus-plus pitches in his fastball and curveball as well as a developing change up. His delivery however is inconsistent which leads to control issues.
Nick Gordon is Nick Gordon. Probably won't drop to us but he's the best positional player out of high school. Potential 5 tool player with elite athleticism.
Jeff Hoffman, we know already.
Ti'quan Forbes has been rated as the most athletically gifted player after Monte Harrison. Mississippi native like DJ Davis and Anthony Alford, lots of risk but with his projectability there's a lot to dream on. He's been rated to go around the compensation/2nd round.
Jakson Reetz is a high school catcher with a great line drive swing. Potential plus bat with a plus arm, scouts say he should stick at catcher.
Erick Fedde, potential first rounder but like Hoffman had TJ surgery and will be out his entire senior year. Could possibly drop but it's unlikely he makes it to the 83rd pick.
Dylan Cease has a gun. Highschool pitcher that hits 97 on the radar with okay command. Has raw offspeed stuff but a potential plus curveball. Ranked around 3rd/4th round.
Stone Garrett:
2013 Tournament of Stars Notes from Don Olsen:
A kid I nickname “Graniteâ€. He is built, strong as an ox, and might be the first that I truly think body wise gives off a bit of Bo Jackson. Approach is a bit passive aggressive. Good rotational swing and compact path, good bat head control, drives it to all fields and can square up on velocity. Good inside/out approach, turns on mistakes. Loud contact and ball jumps off the bat. First step burst and ton of fast twitch ability, speed is plus to plus-plus. Good arm strength and carry could compact a bit to improve accuracy. Range and first step cover a great deal of ground, true CF prospect. He is a 5 tool player who is developing power.
Haven't seen him in many big boards and top 100s but he could probably end up entering that 2nd-4th round range.
Dusty Isaacs was a closer and starter in college. Low 90s fastball, decent secondary pitches and command. Just put him up there because he'd probably be a cheap cheap sign that can rise up the system as a bullpen arm.
Cobi Johnson has advanced pitching mechanics and solid offerings (potential plus curveball, average velo FB with good sink) for a HS pitcher. His father is a roving pitching instructor in the Jays system. Likely in the top 100 but if he slips the Jays would probably be the one to pick him up.
Josh Morgan profiles as a SS/3B with his strong arm and good defensive ability. Potential 5 tool player, but other than his arm nothing seems to be excitingly special. Very average, but a
potentially good kinda average type player, if you catch my drift. Again, in the top 100, but there's always guys that fall due to signability.
