Here's more love for Jaff Decker of Fort Wayne in Baseball America's article about prospects to watch in the postseason:
11. Jaff Decker, lf, low Class A Fort Wayne (Midwest)The two best prospects in the recently-completed Fort Wayne-Great Lakes series are about as different as it gets. Dee Gordon (Dodgers) is a wiry shortstop who relies on speed and athleticism, with little power but raw tools and a projectable frame. While Decker is more athletic than his stocky 5-foot-10, 190-pound frame would suggest, his game is about patience and power as one of the most polished 19-year-old hitters in the minor leagues. Decker is the one who's still playing, though, as the TinCaps advanced to the Midwest League finals yesterday thanks to 22-year-old catcher Robert Lara's game-ending home run in the bottom of the 10th.
