LHP Myles Patton - Texas A&M

Prospects Live Ranking: #57

Like Eyanson, Myles Patton is another California arm who has found his way to the SEC after transferring to Texas A&M this past summer. His season ended in late April due to injury, but the southpaw was enjoying a fantastic season for Long Beach State before he went down. In 66.1 innings pitched, Patton went 4-3 with a 3.26 ERA while striking out 85 batters. He pitched into the 6th inning or later in 9 of 11 starts and amassed double-digit strikeout totals three times. He arrives in College Station with two years of starting experience and should slot into the Aggies’ weekend rotation. He boasts an effective fastball/slider combination that misses a lot of bats, even though his average fastball velocity hovers just on the wrong side of 90 MPH. Patton also features a changeup and curveball, but both pitches must be developed further to be as effective.

Only a few hours after it was reported that RHP Kyrin LeBlanc would be flipping his commitment from Texas to Texas A&M, another arm announced they would be taking their skills to College Station. This time, it's LHP Myles Patton from Long Beach State.

Patton, a junior pre-communications major from Long Beach, CA, struck out a team-best 85 hitters while walking 24 in 66.1 innings of work and posting a 3.26 ERA as well as a 4-3 win-loss record for the Beach. A back injury in May ended his season prematurely but is expected to be ready to go in time for the 2025 season.

Patton was named an honorable mention All-Conference player in the Big West. He posted a career-high 13 strikeouts in a game against Milwaukee in March earlier in the 2024 season.

Patton was used as a starter mainly during his time at Long Beach State, but with the stacked number of arms that Texas A&M boasts, Patton will likely see more time out of the bullpen this upcoming season.
