Frame & Tools: 6-foot-4, 205 pounds with leaner look & still room to pack on. Very athletic for his size. Fastball is likely a future plus-to-better offering, flashes carry in mid-90s with 6'8" extension. Slider is an above average offering spinning over 2500 at 79-81 with 20" of sweep at times, shows feel, is his best commanded pitch. 85-87 change is an average to better offering and is developing. Average control with starters' upside, likely profiles' best as a back-end bullpen piece. Summation: DeVaughan was one of the first arms to throw at this event and set the bar high with a loud 'pen. He came out ripping fastballs at 95-96.6 and above average control for it in this look before spinning a 79-81 mph tightly, two-plane breaking ball that plays with big sweep. His changeup has taken serious strides playing with late fade at 85-87. The delivery still remains as a simple, in-line operation with below-moderate intent, though strength gains continue to louden the arsenal and there is room for even more in his 6-foot-4, 205 pound frame. His event-record fastball and well-executed bullpen to start the weekend was a great first impression of the Alabama recruit to begin 2025.
The sophomore class' top-ranked prospect - Devaughan showed a powerful fastball at the All-State with tons of upside for continued development. Up to 94 mph at previous events this winter, Devaughan averaged 92.2 mph on his four-seam fastball, carrying it with 16" of IVB. The 6-foot-4, 195 pounder also showed a 91-92 mph sinker with 15" of horizontal break. Devaughan will be able to bully hitters with two advanced heaters, and he spun a slurvey, 77-81 mph breaking ball that worked with two-plane shape and spun tightly (2500). The Alabama recruit was inconsistent with command in this look, particularly with his offspeed, but there is no denying the upside he has as a future mid-to-upper 90s arm.
