The Toronto Blue Jays have signed five more players from the 2013 MLB Draft.

The team announced on Sunday afternoon that they have come to terms with first baseman L.B. Dantzler, right-handed pitcher Sean Ratcliffe, shortstop Christian Vasquez, as well as left-handers Scott Silverstein and Matt Dermody.

Ratcliffe, who hails from Pickering, Ont., is one of 20 Canadians taken in the draft – selected in the 18th round, 535th overall.

In total, the Blue Jays have signed 21 of their 2013 draft picks, but have yet to reach a deal with first-round selection Phil Bickford.
