11/07/2013 - Baseball Factory Select Training & Competition at Pirate City Devin is a lean 3B/RHP that will graduate in 2017. At 3B, feet are active as he works to square balls up, displaying clean hands. He moves well side to side, displaying range. For defensive grade to continue to improve, he needs to work to attack balls more, play through while presenting hands more out front. Throws are accurate but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program and work to get rid of the baseball quicker. At the plate, Fairman shows a squared / balanced setup. Hands are quick and work through a direct swing path. He displays an aggressive approach and makes consistent hard contact, mainly to the pull side with baseball jumping off the bat when centered. For hitting grades to continue to improve, he needs to work to keep hands inside the ball to utilize all fields. Power numbers will increase as he learns to hit against a firm front side. On the mound, delivery is repeatable as he uses his lower half well and allows his arm action to work long and well to the plate. Fastball shows a range of 75-76 mph with arm side run. Breaking ball displays sweeping action with gradual break as he needs to work to stay on top of pitch. He slows arm speed on his changeup, tipping off pitch to hitters. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength and works to throw more strikes. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and works hard. With 4 years to further develop, Devin has abilities with time and room to improve.
