Jordan Yamamoto: Hanging up cleats
Jordan Yamamoto announced Monday via his personal Twitter account that he has decided to retire from professional baseball.Yamamoto's decision comes just one week after the Dodgers reassigned him to minor-league camp after he was unable to claim a spot on the team's Opening Day roster. The 26-year-old right-hander made 21 appearances (19 starts) in the majors from 2019 through 2021, logging a 6.05 ERA and 1.41 WHIP across 96.2 career innings between the Marlins and Mets. Yamamoto struggled mightily in 2022 in stops with three of the Mets' minor-league affiliates, and rather than facing the likelihood of another year on the farm in the Dodgers organization, he's elected to close the door on his playing career.

Mets' Jordan Yamamoto: Sent back to minor-league camp
Jordan Yamamoto was re-assigned to the New York Mets' minor-league camp Friday, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.The right-hander wasn't expected to break camp on the big-league roster anyway, but the quick exile is likely due to the shortened spring training schedule and a lack of innings for the Mets' established arms. "We need to get him stretched out," manager Buck Showalter said regarding Yamamoto's demotion. The 25-year-old should begin the year at Triple-A Syracuse and could see action in the majors later this summer if injuries force the Mets to dip into their rotation depth.

Mets' Jordan Yamamoto: Rehab shifts to Low-A
Jordan Yamamoto (shoulder) made his most recent rehab start at Low-A St. Lucie on Thursday, working four innings while striking out five and giving up a run on three hits and no walks.Now four starts into his rehab assignment, Yamamoto has made his last three turns with St. Lucie after kicking off his minor-league stint in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.
