Seeing as I'm his only vote.... yeah, I'm a little guy and I voted for the little guy. :) Anyone remember Bobby Shantz? He was "too" little as well. I've got my fingers crossed for the little guy in a big guy sports world and hopeful that he will turn out to be this decades "little guy who could".
Some fun guys to pull for on that list, but not exactly a whole lot of high ceiling prospects. While I wasn't paying attention, it appears that the Jays have stockpiled more hitting than pitching prospects in the minors. How long has it been since that was the case?
Whither Rickey Romero. How the mighty have fallen.
Cecil is an excellent pitching prospect. Zip and Purcey are good ones. Brad Mills may surprise us. The 2008 draft may not generate any pitching prospects, but that is OK given the balance in the organization.
The very visible need in the organization is at shortstop. The club needs a 3 year solution, and it's going to have to come from a trade or a free agent acquisition.

I voted Cecil over Purcey simply because he's getting to the majors so much younger I think.
One name not on the list that I think might be worth watching is Kenny Rodriguez.
