The son of former Brewers and Red Sox minor league Adam Faurot, Drew is a switch-hitting middle infielder who started his career with UCF, where he hit three grand slams as a freshman. He transferred to Florida State for the 2024 and 2025 seasons and has made strides at the plate. He has historically been better from the left side, but Faurot was actually slightly better as a right-handed batter in 2025 and hit .333/.405/.712. Faurot has above-average power, and at least with a metal bat, it’s been all-fields power from both sides of the plate. He’s always been an aggressive hitter and he will chase outside of the zone, but he rarely misses a fastball.

At second base, Faurot is a reliable defender who often shades up the middle because he trusts his arm when he has to go to his left.
