9/22/26 6-foot, 200-pound right-handed hitter went 4-for-5 with a double, triple and a sacrifice fly over two games. Posted impressive across the board measurables on the day (6.78 60-yard dash, 93 mph bat exit velocity, 80 mph arm strength). Likely a corner outfielder at the next level, Farabaugh has made solid strides defensively. His right-handed swing begins from a square stance and he initiates his lower half with a toe-tap stride.

9/20/15 6-foot, 190-pound right-handed hitter. Starts from a slightly open stance and exhibited a fluid swing with above average barrel whip (91 mph). Displayed some present power and the ability to drive both gaps. Registered top 60-yard dash time at event (6.96). Showcased solid defensive skills with accurate 76 mph arm strength.
6/17/15 6-foot, 190-pound right-handed hitter. Starts from square stance with relaxed set-up. Employs knee-to-knee stride in balanced swing, keeping eyes level with slightly uphill path. Has some strength in frame with power potential (90-mph exit velo). Only participated on day one of event, so was not present for defensive workout.

2/22/15 
 5-foot-11, 180-pound prospect with strong frame. Offensively, the right-handed hitter starts slightly open and initiates his lower half with a leg kick. Good weight transfer and use of hips. Needs to be careful of diving action and extra head movement. Loads his hands from his shoulder. Quick and explosive to the baseball. Pull tendencies in his swing. Top exit velocity of 89 mph off the tee. Ran a 4.43 home to first time. Likely a corner outfielder at this stage. Throws from a high slot with a top velocity of 78 mph. Limited crow hop and momentum through his throws. Some quickness to his exchange.

6/25/14 Farabaugh is a 5-foot-11, 180-pound right-handed hitter that utilizes a leg lift stride and good balance to his swing to create a bat exit velocity of 86 mph. The sophomore went 2-for-6 during game action over two days while running a 7.07 60-yard dash. Farabaugh showed athletic actions in the outfield and a 77 mph arm. 

1/12/14 Farabaugh is a 5-foot-11, 175-pound right-handed hitter with an 86 mph bat exit velocity. He showcased a leg-lift stride foot, very quick hands, and good balance throughout his swing. Farabaugh barreled the baseball consistently and showed the ability to drive the baseball in a very solid round of batting practice. He showed athletic actions in the outfield and a quick release with accurate throws of 70 mph to home plate. Farabaugh will see improved arm strength as his body matures and if he works to lengthen his throwing motion. The freshman turned in a 4.44 home-to-1B time.
