Landon Fontenot is a steady lefty with starter upside and a deceptive three-pitch mix
Landon Fontenot enters 2026 as a Louisiana Tech left-handed pitcher who already showed real strike-throwing progress in the 2025 season, when he made 15 appearances, posted a 6.18 ERA, and struck out 27 in 27.2 innings before jumping to 48.2 innings and 47 strikeouts in 2026. His appeal is the package: a repeatable delivery, natural arm-side sink, a sharp breaking ball, and a changeup that plays off his fastball, giving him a legit three-pitch foundation. He’s not a flamethrower, but he profiles as a crafty, competitive LHP who can give a staff quality innings and keep hitters uncomfortable.
