Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The guy who was once the biggest piece of the Blake Snell to San Diego deal is now toiling in a middle relief role for one of the worst bullpens in baseball. Patino has consistently struggled with his command around injuries and 2023 was no different no matter who his employer was. Patino walked 56 batters around 68 strikeouts in the 81.1 innings he pitched in Durham, Charlotte, Chicago, and Tampa Bay. His split-change has shown promise, but he does not get to use the pitch as much as he would like because he falls behind in the count too frequently and has to use fastballs to catch back up. Chicago needs a replacement for Reynaldo Lopez and perhaps they envisions Patino as that guy with his raw stuff if the coaching staff and front office can realign what Tampa Bay could not. Until they do, you can safely ignore Patino in all formats outside of 50 round draft and holds. Read Past Outlooks

Rest of Season
Shifts to 60-day IL
The Padres transferred Patino (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Patino's move to the 60-day IL was fully expected at some point after he underwent Tommy John surgery April 30. With the right-hander expected to be sidelined until at least the middle of the 2025 season, he'll be a strong candidate to get non-tendered by the Padres this offseason.

2022 was a lost season for Patino who went down early with an oblique injury in his first start of the season and then later with shoulder discomfort limiting him to six starts at the major league level and another 11 in rehab and development in the minors. He had one very impressive outing against the lowly Royals in mid-August, but high other outings were disastrous including one outing where the Yankees hung nine earned runs on him in 1.1 inning of work. The numbers were terrible because he pitched from behind more often than not and the league rightly sat fastball and got what they were looking for. If his command and/or durability do not improve, he could be converted into a power reliever moreso than a starter, but Tampa Bay will give his mechanics and body every attempt to succeed before pushing him to the pen. The talent is there, but the execution is not yet there. A very late round dart throw at best until something changes for the better.
