Impact Yamamoto owns a carer 6.05 ERA in 96.2 major-league innings, so it's no surprise to see him go unclaimed on waivers. He'll remain in an organizational depth role in the minors for now.

With no deGrom or Scherzer for Game 1, Mets tab Tylor Megill
Second-year right-hander Tylor Megill has been given the opening day starting assignment for the New York Mets against the Washington NationalsAPRIL 6, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Designated for assignment The Mets designated Yamamoto for assignment Tuesday.
Impact Yamamoto failed to land a spot on the Mets' Opening Day roster, and he'll now lose his spot on the 40-man roster ahead of the regular season. If he goes unclaimed on waivers, he'll be a candidate to provide rotation depth this year if the Mets' pitching staff deals with additional injuries.

Sent back to minor-league camp Yamamoto was re-assigned to the Mets' minor-league camp Friday, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.
Impact 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.

Rehab transferred to Triple-A Yamamoto (shoulder) had his rehab assignment transferred to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact Yamamoto allowed one run on three hits and no walks while striking out five in four innings at Low-A St. Lucie last week, and he'll now progress to the top level of the minors. The Mets haven't yet announced when the right-hander will be able to return, but he'll likely be in the mix to be activated sometime next week.

Rehab shifts to Low-A 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.
Impact 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. He's continuing to build back up for a starting role in case the Mets require an extra arm for the rotation later in September, but Yamamoto is more likely to slot into the bullpen if the big club suffers no further attrition to its pitching staff in the next week or two.
