Jordan Yamamoto News
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto has retired from professional baseball, according to his personal Twitter account. The 26-year-old was in camp with the Dodgers on a minor league contract. Yamamoto hasn't made an appearance on an MLB mound since 2021. The right-hander put together a decent rookie campaign in 2019, but struggled after that. He'll finish his MLB career with a 6.05 ERA in 21 games (19 starts) between the Miami Marlins and New York Mets.
The New York Mets have designated right-handed pitcher Jordan Yamamoto for assignment. The team selected the contract of relief pitcher Chasen Shreve to fill Yamamoto's roster spot. If Yamamoto isn't traded or claimed over the next week, the Mets can send him to Triple-A as he has a minor league option on his contract. The 25-year-old has a 6.05 ERA and a 1.41 WHIP over 96.2 innings in the majors, but he's shown some promise in the minors over the years, so it seems likely that we'll see another club take a chance on him.
The New York Mets transferred starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list on Tuesday. Yamamoto was removed from his last start on Sunday after pitching four innings and allowing six hits, two walks and five runs (four earned). He will be out until late July at the earliest. The Mets' injuries are out of control right now. They currently have openings in their rotation for both Thursday's game against the Colorado Rockies and Friday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The Mets should be naming a starter for each of the two games soon.
