Nolan DeVos

A shorter righthander listed at 6-foot, 185 pounds, DeVos doesn’t have overwhelming stuff, but he does have a strong performance track record and exciting fastball characteristics. DeVos got some draft attention in 2021 as an eligible sophomore after he posted a 1.48 ERA as a reliever with Davidson, but he stepped into a full-time starting role in 2022 and posted a 2.40 ERA over 78.2 innings, with 106 strikeouts (31.3 K%) and 31 walks (9.1 BB%). His fastball sits in the 88-91 mph range and touches 95, but it has around 20 inches of induced vertical break that help the offering play up. He throws a fringy slider in the lower 80s and will infrequently use both a mid-70s curveball and a mid-80s changeup, but mostly works off the fastball/slider combination. In general, he has shown good command overall and will be more appealing to teams who value his fastball shape than old school scouts who want to see a more projectable body or impact stuff.
