| Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed one earned run on seven hits and one walk while striking out three over seven innings in Sunday's win over the Brewers. Chase Davis Mon, May 25th | Joe Rock has been traded from the Tampa Bay Rays to the Chicago White Sox in exchange for infielder Oliver Dunn. To make room for Rock on the 40-man roster, catcher Kyle Teel was transferred to the 60-day injured list. David Leisering Tue, May 19th | |
| Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out eight over seven innings in Monday's loss to the Padres. Chase Davis Tue, May 19th | The Rays optioned LHP Joe Rock to Triple-A Durham. Ari Koslow Sun, Apr 12th | |
| Yoshinobu Yamamoto had his command but not his usual results in Tuesday's loss to the Giants. Jesse Garcia Wed, May 13th | The Rays recalled LHP Joe Rock from Triple-A Durham. Ari Koslow Fri, Apr 10th | |
| Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed three earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings in Monday's 8-3 win over the Astros. Chase Davis Tue, May 5th | ||
| Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed three earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over five innings in Monday's win over the Marlins. Chase Davis Tue, Apr 28th | ||
| Notes | ||
| Yoshinobu Yamamoto followed up his MLB debut with a strong 2025, flashing elite command and swing-and-miss ability even as his workload was managed. That, however, went out the window when he threw 37 1/3 postseason innings, bringing his total to 210 in 2025. His 2026 projections show maintained excellent ratios and strikeout efficiency. The biggest knock against Yamamoto is that he pitches for the Dodgers, who have a deep enough staff to go with a six-man rotation or rest elite starters down the stretch (fantasy playoffs) if they wish. In any case, Yamamoto profiles as a high-end fantasy starter whose value is anchored in ratios. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros | ||
