Dodgers' River Ryan: Dealing with UCL injury
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that River Ryan was diagnosed with a UCL strain in his right forearm following an MRI on Sunday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.Ryan was placed on the 15-day injured list earlier Sunday and ruled out for the remainder of the 2024 campaign with what was originally described as right forearm tightness.

It's a tough break for the 25-year-old, who was called up for his big-league debut in late July and posted a 1.33 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 18:9 K:BB over 20.1 innings through his first four starts.

The 25-year-old has shined in limited playing time for the Los Angeles Dodgers, posting a 1.33 ERA with 19 strikeouts in 15.2 innings, but his impressive rookie campaign will be paused for an uncertain amount of time. Sunday's MRI should give fantasy managers a more accurate timeline for Ryan's absence.

Dodgers' River Ryan: Decent in no-decision
River Ryan allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Sunday.Ryan yielded a two-run home run to Brent Rooker in the first inning and put traffic on the bases in three of the next four frames. After loading the bases with two outs in the fifth inning, Ryan was pulled at 75 pitches (48 strikes), and Evan Phillips escaped the jam. While it was the shortest of his three starts and the first time he's given up multiple runs, this wasn't necessarily a poor showing from Ryan. He has a 1.72 ERA despite a 1.28 WHIP and 14:9 K:BB over 15.2 innings. That walk rate is what portends the most trouble for him in the majors if he can't get it under control. Walker Buehler (hip) will require at least one more rehab start, so Ryan can tentatively be penciled in for a home start versus the Pirates next weekend.

Dodgers' River Ryan: Strong in second start
River Ryan (1-0) allowed one run on two hits and three walks while striking out eight over 5.2 innings to earn the win over the Astros on Sunday.Ryan was responsible for one run after Alex Vesia allowed a two-run home run to Yainer Diaz in the sixth inning. While he again walked three batters, Ryan has acclimated well to the majors so far through two starts, allowing just two runs (one earned) over 11 innings. Manager Dave Roberts told reporters after the game that Ryan will take his next turn through the rotation even though the Los Angeles Dodgers have two off days next week, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. That means Ryan can be penciled in for a favorable road start at Oakland next weekend.

Dodgers' River Ryan: Penciled in for Sunday start
River Ryan will start Sunday's game against the Astros, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.Ryan will make his second career start after allowing an unearned run in 5.1 innings against the Giants in his MLB debut Monday. With Tyler Glasnow and Clayton Kershaw now healthy, it was unclear if Ryan would stick around for another start. However, Ryan now looks set to vie with Justin Wrobleski to remain the fifth starter once Walker Buehler (hip) returns from the injured list, though the Los Angeles Dodgers could have room for both if the team elects to deploy a six-man rotation.
