December 8, 2025
As we look back on the 2025 summer tournament circuit here in Kansas City, we’ll be breaking down the top players by tool from each class — based on evaluations from our scouting team at Homefield and Creekside. Follow along as we take a deep dive into these players and highlight the summers they put together. Each week will feature our top five players based on each tool from the class, presented in no particular order.
Top Run Tool Class of 2028

Krue Patrick 3B / RHP / Staley, MO / 2028

Patrick was one of the biggest eye-openers this past year — not just because of his speed, but because of his rare blend of hit, run, and power tools. He ran the fastest 60 at the Central Super Sophomore Games and uses his speed and athleticism all over the field defensively. Patrick is actually an underrated runner; he finds himself on second and third so often due to his power that he doesn’t get as many chances to showcase his basestealing ability.
