Branch Celi  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. If you're going in to face Celi, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success. Celi struggles on the road.

Defense & Hitting
He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Celi doesn't make much of an attempt to combat the running game. Basestealers ran at will last year. Celi is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Celi has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Celi as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Celi flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Celi.
