River Ryan To Have Tommy John Surgery
4 months agoThe Los Angeles Dodgers announced on Tuesday that right-handed pitching prospect River Ryan (elbow) will have Tommy John surgery. It was already announced that Ryan would miss the rest of the 2024 season, but now he'll miss most, if not all, of next year as well. It's a tough blow for the Dodgers and for Ryan, who was ranked by MLB Pipeline as LA's No. 3 prospect. The 25-year-old former 11th-round pick of the San Diego Padres in 2021 out of University of North Carolina at Pembroke made his major-league debut this year and looked great, going 1-0 with a 1.33 ERA (3.38 FIP), a 1.18 WHIP and an 18:9 K:BB in his four starts (20 1/3 innings). It remains to be seen if he'll have an internal-brace procedure, but either way, Ryan will be off the redraft fantasy radar in 2025.
