"I hope to surpass my best season every year, and this year I was able to experience many different things and felt a lot of personal growth,"
"I want to do my best to show the fans an even more improved version of myself."
Yoshinobu Yamamoto won the Japan Professional Sports Grand Prize and set goals for the 2026 MLB season. He posted career highs in 2025 and helped the Dodgers secure a second World Series championship. He lowered his ERA to 2.49 from 3.00, surpassed 200 strikeouts, earned his first All-Star selection, and was named World Series MVP. Yamamoto expressed a desire to surpass his best season each year and to show fans an improved version of himself. He has not yet won an NL Cy Young, with Paul Skenes as the current holder, and remains an early contender for future awards.
