The Book on Jaff Decker
Prospect Info
Jaff Decker
Born 2/23/1990
OF, SD
A two-way star in high school, Jaff has a beautiful swing from the left side of the plate to go with a 94mph darting fastball... also from the left side. The Padres are viewing him as a centerfielder for now, though, and he has the bat and the range to hold that position down. He's young and still growing, but his best comparison might be to the Indians Grady Sizemore right now.
