River Ryan Emerging as Must-Stash Pitcher Ahead of Potential Call-Up?
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher River Ryan (hamstring) threw 53 pitches in a rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City, allowing two hits, an earned run, and a walk while striking out four across four innings of work. The 27-year-old opened the year in Triple-A while recovering from Tommy John surgery, which he underwent in August 2024 and caused him to miss the entire 2025 season. However, he suffered a hamstring injury on April 11 that caused him to miss more than a month. Ryan will likely need more time in the minor leagues as he continues to be built up to a full starter's workload. Still, the Dodgers now have a hole in their big-league rotation after the news that left-hander Blake Snell (elbow) is being placed on the injured list due to loose bodies in his elbow. Ryan pitched to a 1.33 ERA across a small sample size of 20 1/3 innings (four starts) after making his MLB debut in 2024. Given his upside and the opportunity in the Dodgers' pitching staff, Ryan could be worth stashing off the waiver wire for fantasy managers.
