Plus
- Keep #24 — still a building-block name on the 300.
- Average 24.65 across 23 boards.
- BK's Pitchers #7 — ace-room capital.
- Ace-tier innings. Pitcher injuries are the tax, not the ranking.
- On 23 boards — not a one-list darling.
- 2.60 ERA in 145.1 IP. The arm is doing the job this year.
Minus
- The rank is the comment until the next IL stint.
BaseBallKeep Take
Yoshinobu Yamamoto is #24 on BaseBallKeep's overall dynasty 300, a 23-source mix anchored by RotoGraphs (Aug 14) and The Dynasty Guru points list (Aug 10). SP for LAD. BK's Pitchers #7. Rest-of-season redraft #23. MLB since 2024. From Bizen / Japan. Bats R, throws R.
BK Value on this rank is 4,634. Same decaying curve as football: 12,000 at 1.01, a late first a fraction of that. If someone is asking for two firsts, run the calculator. 2026 line: 2.60 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, 136 K in 145.1 IP.
The 23-board average is 24.65 on 23 lists that actually ranked him — unranked sources are skipped, never treated as 999. High 7, low 42.
Dynasty pays the next five years. Redraft pays September. If those two ranks diverge, that is the instruction: hold the kid or cash the veteran.
Flags fly forever. We will refresh this file with The Keep. September baseball is a proving ground, not a coronation.
