Darin is a right-handed batter, and gives the Jays more outfield depth, another guy who can play CF and steal a base. He was a 16th round draft pick in 2007. I was a fan when he was in the Jays' system.

Wilson was hitting .210/.239/.306 at New Hampshire, he was a 2nd round draft pick by the Jays in 2008.
