2024 Fantasy Outlook
Ryan came down with shoulder fatigue during spring training and is expected to arrive in Oklahoma City in late May or early June. A divisive dynasty prospect due to wide-ranging expert opinions, Ryan turns 26 in August and has only made two career starts at Triple-A, so he is already a bit behind his peers developmentally due to starting off his pro career as an infielder. He had a 3.80 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 110 strikeouts in 104.1 innings last year, primarily with Double-A Tulsa. Those highest on Ryan see several plus pitches and a high ceiling as a starter, while others project him to end up as a high-leverage reliever. Read Past Outlooks
Undergoes Tommy John surgery
Ryan (elbow) underwent successful Tommy John surgery Aug. 25, per MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Ryan suffered a UCL strain in a start against Pittsburgh on Aug. 11. The right-hander has a small chance of returning to action late in 2025, but he'll more likely need to wait until 2026 to toe a major-league mound again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to start Monday?
Ryan could be an option to start Monday against the Giants, reports Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times.
ANALYSIS
A report from Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic prior to the All-Star break indicated Ryan would be called up early in the second half, and the Dodgers have yet to officially announce a starter for Monday's contest. The 25-year-old right-hander has pitched well in brief action for Triple-A Oklahoma City this year with a 2.76 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 19:6 K:BB over 16.1 innings after he missed the start of the campaign due to shoulder fatigue, and he may be on the cusp of his major-league debut.
