EDGE Analysis

Yamaguchi was let go by the Blue Jays last week, but he landed a new deal with the Giants. The right-hander will attempt to prove himself with his new club after a rough MLB debut in 2020. After coming over from Japan last year, Yamaguchi posted an 8.06 ERA and 1.75 WHIP over 25.2 innings across 17 relief appearances with Toronto.
