River Ryan Seeing Value Increase as Stash Option
Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitcher River Ryan is emerging as a sneaky stash candidate for fantasy baseball. Ryan fell short of the Opening Day rotation, but could be in the mix to return to the majors much sooner than expected. He made his MLB debut back in 2024 and was quite sharp, logging 20 1/3 innings ot the tune of a 1.33 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP. However, he underwent Tommy John surgery in August of 2024, which has kept him on the shelf ever since. While he was a full participant in spring training, the Dodgers opted to keep him in the minor leagues to continue to increase his workload. He has made one start with Triple-A Oklahoma City this season and struck out six hitters over four frames. While their starting rotation appears to be full at the moment, both Emmet Sheehan and Roki Sasaki have struggled in the early going. If Ryan continues to impress in the minor leagues, he could see occasional spot starts and push either Sheehan or Sasaki back into a bullpen role.
