The Twins declined Ryan's $13 million mutual option for 2027 on Friday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Ryan remains under team control for one more season, but the Twins are passing on the option because the hurler's arbitration projection is much lower. The right-hander authored a 3.79 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 159:31 K:BB across 144.2 innings covering 27 outings for Minnesota this season.
