Arizona lands a strike-throwing lefty coming off a breakout 2025
Patrick Morris enters Arizona after a strong 2025 at Western Kentucky, where he posted a 2-0 record, a 1.11 ERA, 33 strikeouts, and held hitters to a .177 average in 32.1 innings; that kind of run prevention plus a 17-inning scoreless stretch shows real bat-missing command and poise. [1] The appeal here is a polished, high-efficiency left-hander who can steady a staff, not just flash velocity, and the jump from a mid-major breakout to the Wildcats suggests upside if his 2025 form holds.
