Fantasy Impact:
The Dodgers took a cautious approach with Yamamoto in 2025, limiting his workload to keep him fresh for the postseason, and plan to do the same in 2026. He pitched 173.2 innings last season, posting a 2.49 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 201 strikeouts. While he’s one of the top pitchers in the league, fantasy managers should note he’ll likely be limited to roughly one start per week throughout the season.
