Overview
Patrick was a regular for three years at Wright State. He had a big junior season, batting 326/403/733 with 20 home runs. He missed the early part of the 2024 season due to a broken thumb. That may have affected him when he returned, as he hit only 244/373/488. He swings and misses a lot, striking out in a third to a quarter of his ABs. He played mostly center in college and runs very well. He stole 31 bases in 35 tries as a sophomore, 17 of 18 as a junior. Baseball America ranked him 284th among draft prospects. Patrick signed for the slot amount just before the deadline.
