Meet One of the BEST Young Pitchers In the World... Yoshinobu Yamamoto

- I should mention (because I failed to do so in the video) that it's not a 100% guarantee that the Orix Buffaloes post Yamamoto for MLB free agency, though it is expected.
While Roki Sasaki, with his perfect game and electrifying pitches, has grabbed most of the attention, Yoshinobu Yamamoto is just 24 going on 25 and has already been Japan's best pitcher for years. This season, he has the opportunity to make more history on top of what he's already done, and capture his 3rd straight pitching triple crown, Eiji Sawamura Award and maybe even MVP. This offseason, he's coming to Major League Baseball...probably (god it would be embarrassing if he didn't).

Seeing how Yamamoto and Sasaki pitch, they are out of this world. I can't wait to see Yamamoto pitch for the Dodgers!!
Sasaki is more dynamic but Yamamoto is more complete as a pitcher.
山本を取らずに
佐々木を取りにいったら
アホだよ
山本を越える日本人は20年は出てこない
@matsalvatore9074Yep.. sounds about right.. maybe a add $10m signing bonus. LOL
a few years back, when the buffaloes were a losing team continuously getting last place or similar, Yamamoto was often dubbed the Japanese deGrom (when he was playing for the mets) because of his sheer dominance and super low ERA, and well, because of how few runs the team would score during the games he starts. Now that the buffaloes are a winning team, nobody says that anymore, but he is still so dominant in Japan
Glad you're posting videos again ❤
Thank you Corey !!
As a Japanese baseball enthusiast, Yamamoto is the best Japanese pitcher currently available, even including Ohtani and Darvish.
Glad you are back
Also great video
ORIX BUFFALOES have most best pitcher method in NPB.
Thanks to Pacific League Winner for 3 consecutive years.(1 time Japan series winner)
Also Ichiro and Yoshida Masataka both belonged to ORIX BUFFALOES.
Wow wow wow... Yoshinobu Yamamoto is with no doubt a 100% home run hero like any other... does that mean we'll... see him on the Mets next season?
Insane
I'm Japanes intense NPB fan
Everybody talking Sasaki is best in Japan
Maybe in the future?
Right now best pitcher is Yamamoto there is no doubt about it.
Great first ball(good quality of 94 to 99mph), stable control , tons of braking ball with high quality each , how toughess , no injured from his experience(not throw much at his school term also), still young 25 years old.
Literally complete pitcher like I've never seen before.
This year Blake snell got cy young award and be on a FA market.
Personaly congrats on him.
However If I were owner of the team in MLB for example,I'm sure I'll pay to Yamamoto more and not get away with him for sure.
Wish my Cards could get someone like this! We need a guy with his caliber. This is our first losing season since 2007, and second in the 21st century. Just awful! 😢😢
Agree. Mo should look hard onto this kid.
Let’s hope he comes to my METS and dawns the blue and orange. LFGM!!!!
Great work bro.
He just did his 2nd no hitter in his career, every mlb team needs him.
Era below 1.30 incredible
Oh you have the Yankees RedSox and Mets as favorites. That’s cute.
Thank you David
@@llamabaseball yoyre welcome sweetie you should try getting a clue tho
Yamamoto is not a #2 starter...he is a ACE flat out..he is one of the best pitchers ive ever seen
Yamamoto refuses joining NYY because some NY commentator hate Ohtani because he is a Japanese.
But many Japanese played with NYY such as Matsui, Ichiro, Kuroda, Tanaka and they were quite OK.
Twins should really look into this guy. Could potentially be their ace at some point, which would move Pablo and Ryan down in the rotation, which would benefit both of them a ton.
I agree, but a team like the Red Sox have a better chance. They can spend more. Yankees know. They put all their money in on Judge.
lol guys, calm down, he's going to be a cub
I don’t remember ever seeing a team have 2 ace pitchers from japan. UNCLE STEVIE WILL GET HIM ❤
Then Sasaki when he posts. LGM!
Japanese pitchers actually tend to have better strikeout numbers once they transition to the MLB. NPB is a low strikeout league.
Yeah I noticed that looking at numbers afterwards 😭😭 oops
Great video otherwise.
@@byInventus thank you! Always something I miss lol, been trying to get into npb more tho following the Marines
NPBはコンタクトヒッターが多いから
Mets. It would only cost them money, which they have a ton of. No qualifying offer, no loss of a draft pick.
Boston gotta get him back with Yoshida asap
Get it done Chaim Bloom
Dodgers rotation is in dire need of Yamamoto and may be the top bidder. It of course mostly depends on where he prefers to play.
The Dodgers won’t be anywhere near him. They spent so much damn money on their batters.
Also, it’s working out very well for the Dodgers so I’m not hating. You guys might win it again this year
@@youtubeconnollyfamilyI’m from the future
Lol. He was never gonna sign else where. Welcome to LA
The Braves will actually go after a guy like this. Teams will pay Nola & Snell money like this guy, even though Yamamoto is better.
Yamamoto could go to the Red Sox because Yoshida was his teammate in the buffaloes,
I hope so desperately need an ace
I hope to god you are right we could also use ohtani
I think the Red Sox are the favorite to get him for sure
Plus, the owners better spend like freaking crazy this off-season. Enough of this losing crap. We spend so much damn money at Fenway. They got rid of Betts, Bogaerts and Schwarber. Time to bring in some big bats and pitchers. I hope they keep Chris Sale, because he ended the year very strong.
Cardinals would love to have him
Go get him Cohen!
Mets desperately need him. Only quality starter they have is senga and there’s nothing in the farm. Mets need to lock up young free agent pitchers this off-season. heard rumblings that the mets 2 priorities this offseason is Yoshinobu Yamamoto and julio urias.
Yes indeed Mets need to retool the starting rotation, add bullpen help, & add a big bat in the outfield. The Mets got criticism for their trades but we underachieved badly. We traded top players & future Hall of Famers who were older though; our window was short with them so it was smart to trade them. We had to pay a chunk of their salaries but we got some top prospects back which isn’t very common especially with the Mets. I was always puzzled & disappointed when the Mets traded good players at the deadline during bad seasons to contenders when we had leverage & other clubs were desperate for their stretch runs. Other clubs often got good prospects back but we usually didn’t. This time we got some exciting prospects who could very well be with the club soon & be important players, or we can flip them in a package to fill our holes.
The Mets still have a solid core & team plus a restocked farm system. We have gotten younger & more athletic. Verlander & Scherzer are 39 & Robertson is 38; we can resign Robertson next year too. Canha is 36 & was a disappointment & Pham is 35 & was on a 1 year contract. Now we can start Mauricio or Acuna at 2B & move McNeil to LF. We can add another bat to outfield & also at DH as Vogelbach is not the answer.
Anyway, Senga was a great signing & could recruit Yamamoto to the Mets. Having a Japanese teammate would provide a level of comfort too. Yamamoto would be the perfect addition to our staff. He’d help make the Mets rotation a top pitching staff again & help us set the team up for sustained success as he is young. Then we can sign Urias or Snell for example plus I hope we retain all of our homegrown players like Peterson who is versatile & under appreciated.
The Mets let too many players go last year which affected team chemistry I think which is a contributing factor to the bad season. We added top prospects & got a lot younger & more athletic. With some smart but good additions like Yamamoto, the Mets can quickly retool & be a top contender again. The season was disappointing but unlike the short sighted baseball analysts I am really excited & happy with our trades. I really like OFs Drew Gilbert & Ryan Clifford who we got from the Astros & IF Luisangel Acuna who we got from the Rangers. Both are dynamic players who could be with the team soon & add excitement to the lineup as they are very toolsy. Gilbert is a hustler & gamer too which I love. He could be a similar player to Nimmo with even more speed & defense. Signing Yamamoto is a must though. I know Ohtani prefers staying on the West Coast but if we able to sign him, then we would be filthy. That’s be a ridiculous coup. Yamamoto & Ohtani would be a historic set of signings & perfect additions for the Mets. Let’s Go Mt!
Money and no pick compensation. Yeah Mets lead the clubhouse to get him
@@KenjiMapes agreed. They need to give him big money though
@@tommyj653 🙂👍 I expect a big offseason of trades & free agent signings to revamp this team. We have a stacked farm system now. We got a lot younger & more athletic. We had older veterans with long & storied careers but a short window with Verlander & Scherzer that didn’t work out. Now Cohen & Billy can retool this roster for a strong 2024 & sustained future success. They have to get 2 top starters, retain & extend core guys, strengthen the bullpen, add a power bat in the outfield & improve the depth. If they make smart moves we should be back in the thick of things again. This season was a big disappointment but they made smart moves that help us in the future. I find it laughable that they criticized us trading two 39 year old aces & a bunch of 35+ year old outfielders who weren’t part of the long term future.
We are still haunted by the ghosts of the Wilpons. In the past the Mets traded good players at the deadline when we were out of it for marginal prospects & junk. We got exciting top prospects who can be big pieces for the future or be used in trades for established players. The key is making the right moves. I believe in Uncle Steve! Let’s Go Mets!🟧🟦🙂👍🤘
@@tommyj653 🙂👍 Let’s do it! Hopefully Uncle Steve & GM Billy Eppler gift us a big offseason Contrary to the short sighted criticism, our trade deadline moves were smart & shrewd. We bet on older future Hall of Famers but it didn’t pan out with 39 year old aces Justin Verlander & Max Scherzer We traded 38 year old bullpen stud David Robertson who we can resign next year & traded 35+ year olds Mark Canha, Tommy Pham & Eduardo Escobar They weren’t in our long term plans We had a small window with these older but solid players & we underachieved. So Cohen & Eppler pivoted We have a future star in Alvarez & Baty’s revamping in the minors should help him because he has tons of talent We have a lot of solid prospects but unlike in the past when the Mets usually got marginal prospects with deadline deals, we got some exciting young top prospects back in trades & have stacked our minor league system. We have some important future pieces in the minors & some cam be used in trades for an established star or two. With some smart moves, we can be back in the hunt in 2024.
Now Ohtani & Yamamoto in Mets uniforms n 2024 would be a dream. Ohtani could be the DH & a starter. Hopefully Kodai can recruit some Team Japan teammates to NY Met Orange & Blue🟧🟦 Let’s Go Mets❗️👊😊👍
See ya in Flushing LGM!
Fireeeeeee
i think boston paid yoshida whatever means necessary for more than just how good yoshida is. (which he is better than expected and a discout at this point) but i see them going hard for yamamoto
Yeah they can’t outspend Cohen
@@Dtonk4609 John Henry absolutely CAN out spend Cohen for the RIGHT player.. the Red Sox are done over spending for aging, injury prone hasbeens as the Mets are learning the hard way this year
@@jaredontv Cohen can buy Henry 4 times over, good luck
@@jaredontv aging hasbenns. Chris sale fits that bill
@@Dtonk4609 they made that signing a few years ago with Dave Dombroski trying to go for it... even David Price did not live up to the giant contract we gave him... I believe the Sale and Price signings were the last straw with Red Sox ownership...the reason John Henry moved on from Dombroski and hired Chaim Bloom is to stop the over spending on older players who are breaking down..
I could see the Chicago White Sox or Chicago Cubs sign Yamamoto.
9.9.2023 no no pitching
Wow
I think he will end up with the Dodgers.
Cubs need to nab him, Heywarss contract fell off and Stroman opted out. Chicago needs this gentleman. We really are hurting in the bullpen, but we need to replace Stroman and he can do that. He'd more than likely be an Upgrade.
He will be a Met
Is the 🐐 back??
No
@@llamabaseball 😢😔
6/218 Cubs Yamamoto
11/670 for Ohtani Dodgers
I think he's gonna look good in blue and orange playing out of Flushing NY
What a dump flushing is
Red Sox need to go all in this off-season. Chris sale and it’s strong so I hope they keep him then. Spend a crap load of money. Get some good pictures and some good hitters and let’s go for a freaking ring. We spent so much damn money at Fenway. We’re sick of being horrible. We are not used to that.
Y’all waited 86 years once you can do it again
@@brandenberdichevsky4072 86 years come on that’s harsh. We can’t wait that long again lol I will probably be dead by then.
Come on Padres. We only have 2 starters locked in for next year. Get Yamamoto, trade Soto for Greg Kirby, then trade with Miami for Edward Cabrera... Musgrove, Kirby, Darvish, Yamamoto, Cabrera 😎
MLB THE SHOW 24 development team should start working on Yamamoto's face model and his pitching style now.
That shoulder will blow out in the U.S.
Admire your optimism
RedSox are going to go hard after him
Come on Phillies, spend Nola's money on this guy.
Hopefully he comes to my yankees
New York Yankees
He started pitching when he was in senior high. He has not had any major injuries in his pitching arm. His pitching style tends to place less stress, at least in my untrained eye.
When he coming to American
He’s expected to this off-season
Yamamoto will make Yankees fans forget Mashiro Tanaka!
He suits the Yankees.
That’s a lot of loot for one guy. Although the Japanese are closing the gap on mlb talent, the posting fee structure is pretty wild.
I think, don't want to give Japan's treasure to a weak team.
Yes but all the weak teams want him so they can get better! I’d hate to see him go to some bottom feeder team and wait for years before even making the playoffs, like Ohtani. Not really having a chance at a championship. All these guys talking about money but the Japanese come to play in a large market to experience baseball outside Japan, NOT wanting just a lot of money. I want the kid to go to at least a contender.
He could be with the Cubs if we don't get Ohtani.
Yeah…. Okay right
He will be a met
@@Dtonk4609 I don't see them spending money after what happened this season.
@@KazeShikamaru yeah they won’t spend on a 25 year old pitcher with the richest owner in the sport
Ohtani is not playing in windy ass Chicago In the middle of the country
Moe will kick the tires. But, as usual, the Cards will be the bridesmaid not the bride.
After a bad season.. the Yankees will be on the hunt aggressively
Can somebody explain all of this pitch types and speed?
Four-seam is fastest at 98.1 mph and averages 94.4 mph.
Split is fastest at 93.2 mph and averages 89.4 mph.
Curveball is fastest at 84.5 mph and averages 76.4 mph.
Cutter is fastest at 95 mph and averages 91.3 mph.
Two-seam is fastest at 96.9 mph and averaged 93.8 mph.
Slider is fastest at 88.2 mph and average 84.5 mph.
He's as good or better than Darvish.
We got rid of Mookie Betts, and Bogaerts, Kyle, Schwarber and what do we have to show for it, nothing.
Next dodger
Future SF Giant
LMAO! Nobody wants to play in that hell hole.
山本はNYMに行くべきである。
At 25, with the new rules, he is not subject to be posted. But everything else was spot on!
Yankees 😂😂😂😂
He has to wait 5 years bro
After his rookie year. 2018 was 5 years ago
Hope the Mets get him we got senga hopefully we get Otahni 🇯🇵
NYM, BOS and NYY dont deserve him.
His ability should not be used to help weaker teams win. He needs to be part of a strong team, LAD is the only choice.
何でも欲しがってるんじゃねぇよ。もっとファームを大切にしろよ。
Mets , Red Sox , Dodgers …
