Ranking Challenges: After coming off of the Rays and the Rangers Top 11s, the Jays present a different kind of challenge, as the talent in the system drops off very quickly. The pitching tends to be in the polished to low-ceiling range, but there are some high-ceiling youngsters who could easily play their way onto next year's list.

Cecil should definitely be higher than Cooper.

 

[braden]

And Arencibia.

Interesting, they have Arencibia as a 5-star prospect? I thought I read somewhere that his bat isn't as good as people think. 4-Star at best IMO.

Allen

That's what I was thinking. I like Arencibia, but I thought he would def. be 4-Star.

Kinda surprised to see Ahrens off the list. Arencibia's only issue, if that, is his OBP. I'm rooting for "Tiny" Tim Collins.

 

[jbone17]

I like Arencibia just as much as anybody, but he is no 5 star prospect. He should be at least a 4.

Guess plus plus power can make people overlook some short comings, lol. But I agree he may be a bit overrated on this list
