Paul DeJong Named Appalachian State League Player Of The Week For Period June 22-28, 2015

(.500/.583/.850, 5 G, 10-for-20, 4 2B, 1 HR, 5 RBI, 6 R, 3 BB, 4 K)
The first couple of weeks after getting Drafted can be a whirlwind for young players. At least DeJong, a fourth-round pick this year out of Illinois State, is enjoying the ride. The right-handed-hitting third baseman hit a double in his first four games with Johnson City and went 3-for-3 with a walk in his fifth. DeJong had a .333/.427/.605 line with 14 homers and 15 doubles in 51 games during his final collegiate season, so it appears he's picked up where he left off with the Redbirds.
