Shortstop Eric Snow was the first Auburn name off the board on day two. He was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays with the 172nd overall pick in the sixth round. Snow’s slot value is $383.6K.

Toronto used its seventh round pick on right-handed pitcher Dylan Watts. The slot value for Watts, who was drafted 202nd overall, is $299.9K.
