After graduating from high school early to enroll at the University of Florida in time for the 2019 collegiate season, Fabian struggled initially as a freshman, though he put that in his rearview mirror with a strong Cape Cod League performance that summer. He showed off his power in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season and again in 2021, albeit with some swing-and-miss, leading to him being selected in the second round of the Draft by the Red Sox. He opted to return to the Gators for another season when he and the team could not come to terms. There he showed off his tools, and the holes in his game. This time around he lasted until the Competitive Balance Round B where the Orioles, who coveted him a year ago, got their man for a full-slot bonus of .03 million.
Fabian brings some serious offensive upside from the right side of the plate into the Orioles system. Early in the spring, he answered some questions about his strikeout rate, but then struggled more against conference opponents and finished his Gators career with a 24.3 percent K rate. His bat speed and the power generated from it are legit, producing 20 home runs in 2021 and 24 in 2022. He has shown he is capable of making more consistent contact while not sacrificing power at times.
Fabian doesn’t have blazing speed, but his above-average wheels along with his excellent instincts, reads and routes point to a long-term future in center field. Because of his decision to leave high school early, Fabian was still only 21 at the time of the Draft, still with an upside to be an up-the-middle impact bat if he can continue to cut the whiff rate.
