River Ryan Worth Stashing Despite Coming Off Season-Worst Outing?
Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect River Ryan had a rough outing last time out at Triple-A Oklahoma City, giving up eight earned runs in 4 1/3 innings. It was by far the worst start for Ryan at Oklahoma City, and the former San Diego Padres draft pick has impressed overall in 2026. Ryan is coming off Tommy John surgery, which kept him out for 2025, and after a right hamstring strain kept him out a good portion of April and into May, he managed to complete three starts in May while allowing just one earned run. The Dodgers' top pitching prospect is still knocking on the door for a big league opportunity despite the recent poor start and the injury setbacks. Right-hander Emmet Sheehan has struggled recently, and two MLB starters, Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell, are both on the injured list, leading to speculation that it could be time for Ryan to get a look in Los Angeles. If he does get a call-up to the Dodgers, Ryan would be in a prime position for success and thus is worth a look in leagues of all sizes.
