jays are expected to pick Lucas Giolito a HS RHP

had some elbow problems so I wouldn't be surprised if he needs TJS down the road (it's not really a bad thing)

also, signability might be an issue for him because you'd only be able to give him $2.7m. So he might opt for college (UCLA)

otherwise he had incredible stuff, and could probably go in the top 5 picks without the above issues

how many years do you think he is away, about 4 to 5 years?

3-4 assuming he doesn't need any surgery(which the medicals prove that he didn't).

Yes, had a good chance of going 1st overall(would have been the 1st prep pitcher ever to do so) if not for the injury concerns.
