Felnin Celesten stands in front of the biggest season of his young career. "While Celesten's 2025 wasn't in line with expectations, the 20-year old has tools that remain eye-watering." 🧵

@sulik18726 Arnold you’re one of the more baseball purist-followers I have and I respect you for it Please never stop!

Eury Perez-9.2 innings, 6.52 ERA, 9 hits, 3 HRS, 6 BB's. Chandler - 11.0 innings, 6.55 ERA, 11 hits, 2 HRS, 11 BB's. Lagrange - 9.2 Innings, 0.93 ERA, 4 hits, 1 HR, 3 BB's Bergert- 9.2 innings, 6.52 ERA, 11 hits, 5 HRS, 3 BB's Urena - 11.0 inn, 4.63 ERA, 10 hits, 0 HRS, 3 BB's Lagrange only one that deserves a shot at the Majors. Rest back to Minors.

Notable Spring Training Whiff% standouts: - Eury Perez: 47.1% - Bubba Chandler: 38.7% - Carlos Lagrange: 38.5% - Ryan Bergert: 34.7% - Walbert Urena: 34.2% Surprisingly, Ryan Bergert will not make the rotation to start the year and will head to AAA.

@WeNeedthePeople You know it

@LouisAnalysis This is a Walbert Urena tweet.

@BDunphyCulp I doubt it

@LouisAnalysis Urena gonna make the rotation?

@mnbvjhgfuyy Ryan Walbert Bergert is even better

@LouisAnalysis Walbert Bergert would’ve been a much better name than Ryan.

@SayHeyJaron Better thing to be concerned about indeed

@LouisAnalysis I’m very concerned that I’m only at 50% shares.

Andrew Painter this Spring: - 4.7% BB% ✅ - 29.9% Whiff% ✅ - 29.4% Chase% ✅ - 96.1 MPH vFA ✅ - SL, SW & CH w/Whiff% > 40% ✅ His FF shape remains something to watch. But to say the 22-year old (!) is having a concerning spring feels like a bridge too far.

Notable Spring Training Barrel% Standouts: - James Tibbs III: 24% - Jordan Lawlar: 23.2% - Dalton Rushing: 22.2% - Bryce Eldridge: 18.2% - Jordan Beck: 17.9% - Matt McLain: 16.7% - Kevin McGonigle: 16.7% - Sal Stewart: 16.7% - Noelvi Marte: 15.2%

Thank you for reading, make sure to come back tomorrow! Louis

Should tomorrow be a Special Spring Breakout Edition?

Spring Training Notables 3/18: - Shohei Ohtani went 4.1 IP, 1 H, 2 BB, 4 K's. - Tai Peete hit 412 ft HR w/EV 104.3 MPH. - Andrew Painter went 4 IP, 1 H, 1 BB, 3 K's. - Conelly Early went 5 IP, 1 H, 2 BB, 7 K's. - Adley Rutschman went 2-4 w/a double. More below 👇

@sulik18726 Comments like this make my day

@LouisAnalysis Braiden Ward for the Red Sox has had a 100% better Spring Training then Marcelo Mayers. HOW THE HELL HE IS NOT ON THIS, shows this is Bullshit.

Notable Spring Training Chase% standouts: - Marcelo Mayerr: 9.5% - Esteury Ruiz: 13.2% - George Lombard Jr.: 13.5% - Travis Bazzana: 14.5% - Jonathan Arnada: 14.6% - JJ Wetherholt: 15.3% - Kazuma Okamoto: 15.5% Esteury Ruiz has a career Chase% > 32%. If he starts walking...

@yakyucosmo Can always fly through Mongolia

There is a possibility that Yomiuri Giants RHP Raidel Martinez will not make it in time for opening day as he is yet to return to Japan because of difficulties booking a flight. sanspo.com/article/202603…

@aren_renz_reyes Yeah Miyagi and Tsumida deserve praise too

@LouisAnalysis Just really disappointing my boy Miyagi wasn't able to get the chance to show his skill in the knockouts

The World Baseball Classic showed some of the elite talent active in the NPB: - Andrès Machado - Shota Morishita - Atsuki Taneichi - Chihiro Sumida - Teruaki Sato Machado is key in the ORIX bullpen, pitching 55 IP to a 2.28 ERA / 1.27 FIP with 28 SV.

@nate_perez4 FF has taken a big step back, it’s hurting his profile a lot.

@LouisAnalysis 3 years ago I thought Hiroto Takahashi was the going to be this years Roki Sasaki.

@oysteranalytics You’re definitely right. But I’m still very much intrigued!

@LouisAnalysis He's struggled to make it stick in the majors, even when his AAA chase rates have gone down. Some guys struggle a ton with that elite spin.
