🚨 KNUCKLEBALL ALERT 🚨 Twins prospect Cory Lewis unleashed his insane 83 mph knuckleball today, which averages a spin rate of less than 300 RPM! proStuff+ rates it as an elite pitch, coming from one of the most unique deliveries you'll ever see!

Corbin Burnes looked sharp in a matchup against his former team! The cutter was excellent, the slider had more gyro action, and his elite mix of movement and command was on full display—showing why he remains one of the best arms in the game.

Ryan Bergert put together a strong outing against the White Sox! His fastball had plenty of life, and the slider was as sharp as ever. The sweeper added another weapon to keep hitters guessing. Bergert continues to show he’s got the arsenal to be a problem on the mound!

Behind Cole Ragans and Tarik Skubal, Gavin Williams might be working his way toward becoming one of the top arms in the AL Central! His fastball and slider are undoubtedly great!

George Kirby returned to the mound today and debuted what appears to be a new cutter! Once pitch classifications catch up, his stuff will look even better—but for now, his splitter is undoubtedly elite!

Are the Yankees just planning to roll out a bunch of guys with insane sweepers this season?? Yoendrys Gómez showcased a sweeper that registered a proStuff+ of 152, featuring 6 inches of positive IVB—that's almost unheard of!

The Mets' pitching lab is back at it! GĂŠnesis Cabrera struck out two in his lone inning of work, leaning on his nasty slider. Expect his stuff grade to climb even higher once the misclassified slider (labeled as a four-seamer) gets corrected!

Will Warren, aka Michael King 2.0, is on a roll this Spring Training! This guy is a stuff monster, recording a 100% whiff rate on the sweeper and a 60% whiff rate on his four-seamer today!

Tarik Skubal's day is done, and needless to say, he's still in Cy Young form! The 2024 AL Cy Young winner said he took only one day off last offseason—and it showed. This is certainly a guy determined to repeat!

Max Meyer is done for the day, and his stuff did not disappoint! That gyro slider is about as high as a gyro can get, and it will certainly help carry Max a LONG way!

Davis Martin showcased a balanced pitch mix against the Rockies, relying heavily on his changeup and fastball! A solid outing with room for improvement moving forward!

JosĂŠ Soriano took the mound for the Angels and flashed some electric stuff, with his sinker and a few different power breaking balls looking sharp. Definitely a name to keep an eye on this season!

Stephen Kolek's spring debut for the Padres showed some intriguing pitch mix changes. Alongside his sinker, it looks like he might be working in a sweeper and possibly a curve. A new look for him heading into the season?

There will be better days ahead for Kumar Rocker! It looks like he's got two breaking balls and an ELITE sinker!

Blake Snell's debut in Dodger Blue is complete, and yes, his stuff is still INSANE

It looks like Yimi GarcĂ­a has no plans of slowing down this season!

Matt Canterino certainly has the stuff to be a top-end reliever! The question is, can he execute on it?

Thomas Harrington might have the highest-graded slider I’ve ever seen in my life

Evan Reifert struck out the side, recording 7 whiffs on 7 swings, producing a 100% whiff rate, in his lone inning of work today! His arsenal is one to watch—lots of deviation from his arm angle. Hitters are definitely going to struggle, as today showed!

Quinn Mathews was lights out today! The 24-year-old lefty struck out three over two scoreless innings, fueled by a dominant four-seam fastball!

Spencer Schwellenbach hasn’t missed a step from last season! His unique arsenal, which deviates from his arm angle, gives hitters fits—resulting in two strikeouts over two innings today!

At 40, Max Scherzer still has elite, ace-level stuff! He dominated the Cardinals with a staggering 50% whiff rate and a 109 proStuff+!

Jared Jones made his Spring Training debut today, possibly with two new pitches! His new sinker drops below his arm angle line, while his new cutter might be the pitch close to x=0. Once classifications update, his stuff will likely jump to match his nearly 40% whiff rate!

Yeah, I think I've seen enough. Brady Singer has either added a Cutter or completely reimagined the shape of his 4SFB. 📊: @mlbpitchprofiler.com & @tjstats.nesti.co

Clay Holmes made his Spring Training debut for the Mets—marking his return to starting! Pitch classification needs time to catch up, but he appears to have a six-pitch mix: Four-Seam, Sinker, Kick-Change, Cutter, Slider, and Sweeper.

We have our first 100 mph fastballs of Spring Training! Daniel Palencia lit up the radar gun and also showcased a sharp slider and splitter in his electric debut.

Bobby Miller’s first outing of Spring Training was cut short after he took a comebacker to the head. Before exiting, he flashed a solid mix, posting a 111 proStuff+ with four pitches above league average. Hoping for good news on his recovery!

Brad Keller showcased his cutter and sinker today, striking out 2 of 7 batters while allowing minimal damage!
