Of all the 2025 MLB draft prospects, one of the hardest prospects to get a good feel for has been Patrick Forbes, a pitcher out of Louisville. Coming out of high school, Forbes was looked at as one of the top prep prospects in the 2022 draft, but as a power bat who could play on the infield. Perfect Game graded Forbes as the top shortstop and overall player coming out of Kentucky before the 2022 draft.
At Bowling Green High School, Forbes’ impressive frame and incredible stat sheet caught the eyes of many of the nation's top scouts.
