Craig YohoMIL · CLE · RP

2026 review

Craig Yoho was a multi-inning middle reliever who got knocked around: he posted a 4.93 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 38.1 IP, with a 25.0 K% and an 11.0 BB% over 164 BF across 34 games for MIL and CLE, picking up 2 W, 1 L and 4 HLD. A right calf strain put him on the 15-day IL Mar 22, he took a rehab assignment Apr 19 and was activated and optioned Apr 23, then shuttled between the majors and the minors on Jun 5, Jun 8, Jun 12 and Jun 25 before a Jul 4 recall, missing 29 regular-season days overall; he went from MIL to CLE and was optioned again Sep 27. Taken in just 19 of 674 drafts at ADP rank 844, he finished 699th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 415th of 811 pitchers and 313th of 575 relievers. His 4.93 ERA ran 0.63 above his 4.30 xERA over 164 BF, with a 1.93 ERA in 14.0 IP in Jul against a 7.15 ERA in 11.1 IP in Aug. In early Jun the TDK LABS card had him as a fresh recall without a save or hold path established, and by late Aug it had him working heavy innings in the Cleveland pen with no leverage role, still noting by late Sep a heavy reliance on his changeup in a linear pen.
