Fabian was promoted to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Steve Melewski of MASNSports.com reports.
Fabian has spent the entire 2024 season with Double-A Bowie and has maintained a .344 wOBA and 115 wRC+. However, he was still plagued by a 29.5 percent strikeout rate, which dampens his long-term outlook significantly.
Fabian (ankle) started in right field and went 1-for-5 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run Saturday in Double-A Bowie's 19-1 win over Reading.
Fabian exited early in Friday's season opener after tweaking his left ankle, but his presence in the lineup a day later suggests that his removal was merely precautionary. The 23-year-old outfielder is making his return to Bowie after he finished the 2023 campaign with the affiliate and slashed .176/.314/.399 over his 288 plate appearances at the Double-A level.

Fabian pushed his way to the Eastern League after slashing .281/.392/.490 with nine home runs and 19 stolen bases over 237 plate appearances with Aberdeen.
