Post Draft: MM's Top 25- #19 CF Matt Den Dekker


Now that the draft is over, Mack's Mets will be reviewing the performances of our organizational Top 25 prospects and re-ranking them based on their individual performances, perceived place on the depth chart, and recent draft signings.

Look to the right of our page to find the current rankings that we have done already

Mack's Mets #19 organizational prospect is......





#19 CF Matt Den Dekker (LR: #15)
Bats: L Throws: L
Height: 6' 1" Weight: 205 lb
Acquired: 2010 draft, 5th round, University of Florida

2013: (AAA) .139/.238/.306, 1 HR, 3 RBI, 1 SB (50%), 5 BB, 13 K
2012: (AA/AAA) .274/.321/.458, 17 HR, 76 RBI, 21 SB (70%), 34 BB, 154 K
2011: (A+/AA) .265/.337/.460, 17 HR, 68 RBI, 24 SB (71%), 51 BB, 156 K
2010: (R/A) .336/.396/.459, 0 HR, 20 RBI, 3 SB (100%), 11 BB, 33 K

After spending 2 months in a cast and developing atrophy, which delayed his comeback an additional month an allowed Juan Lagares to pass him on the OF depth chart, Den Dekker is back and playing with Las Vegas. This is going to be Den Dekker's last appearance on a prospect list as he turns 26 next month and has probably reached the peak of his potential. While the hit tool will probably only produce at best a .240-.250 batting average, his Gold Glove caliber defense and power against right handers will at least guarantee him a spot as the team's 4th outfielder next year.
