J.P. drafts J.P.

After spitting the bit this afternoon against the Devil Rays (Carl Crawford eats the Jays for breakfast, AGAIN!), the Jays have made their first two picks of the draft.

Kevin Ahrens, a switch-hitting high school 3B/SS went first (16th overall), followed by U of Tennessee catcher J.P. Arencibia. (Not only is he another J.P., but in both cases, it stands for Jon Paul. For real.)

We're no draft expert, so we leave you with those links, and the next three years to decide if these were wise choices.

BTW, MLB.com has been running the ESPN2 coverage of the draft all afternoon, and contrary to what we had expected, it has been interesting and informative. It always helps to have Peter Gammons on the set.
