The Jays farm system currently ranks 17th in the entire league with only 3 players ranked in the top 100 and in my opinion that is unacceptable. After examining the roster there are only a couple of players who have actually been drafted by the Blue Jays. They have had some pretty high picks in the last few years and it seems that very few of them have panned out. The Blue Jays minor league system is also virtually devoid of pitching talent. This is just another thing to add to my growing to do list.
