Joe Ryan Completes Bullpen Session

According to Bill Ladson of MLB.com, Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan (shoulder) completed a 36-pitch bullpen session on Thursday and did not face any setbacks. Manager Rocco Baldelli noted that the right-hander look in "midseason" form. Ryan ended the 2024 season on the injured list due to a Grade 2 teres major strain he suffered in August. However, the 28-year-old was able to have a normal offseason. Seeing him throw a successful bullpen early in spring training and not facing any setbacks is a positive sign. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status but expect him to be locked into the starting rotation on Opening Day. Last summer, Ryan was enjoying a breakout season as he posted a 3.60 ERA with a 0.99 WHIP across 135 frames. He struck out 147 batters and held a stellar 4.3 percent walk rate. If cleared for action, Ryan will likely slot in as the No. 2 option behind Pablo Lopez.

Joe Ryan Having Normal Offseason Despite Shoulder Injury

According to Matthew Leach of MLB.com, Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan (shoulder) has been having a typical offseason despite the shoulder injury that cut his 2024 season short. Ryan was placed on the injured list in early August with a Grade 2 right teres major strain. However, Leach reported that Ryan is having a "typical offseason" and throwing like he "normally would." This is an excellent sign for the 28-year-old as he should be a full-go during spring training. Ryan enjoyed a career season in 2024 as he posted a 3.60 ERA and a stellar 0.99 WHIP across 135 innings of work. He struck out 147 batters and showed elite command with a near-perfect 4.3% walk rate. He also generated an excellent 2.87 xERA, which suggests that he should be in store for some positive regression in 2025. Ryan carries solid upside in drafts this offseason as he should be poised to take another step forward this summer.

Joe Ryan Progressing Well

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan (shoulder) is progressing well, according to Twins president of baseball operations Derek Falvey. Falvey noted that the reports about the right-handed pitcher have been "nothing but positive." Ryan sustained a right teres-major strain in August and was unable to return to the mound before the end of the regular season. Before the injury, the 28-year-old posted a 3.60 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and a 23:147 BB:K in 135 frames of work. Ryan showcased stellar command with a near-perfect 4.3% walk rate. In addition, he was able to generate whiffs at an above-average 26.6% mark and strikeouts at a strong 27.3% rate. If Ryan makes a full recovery in time for spring training, fantasy managers should target him as a great option to boost your team's WHIP.

Joe Ryan Done For The Regular Season

The Minnesota Twins moved starting pitcher Joe Ryan (triceps) to the 60-day injured list on Tuesday, ending the hurler's regular season. Since Ryan's IL placement for the Grade 2 teres major strain behind his right shoulder was dated to Aug. 8, the 60-day placement means he is eligible to return on Oct. 7 at the earliest. He has not yet resumed throwing. As of Tuesday, Ryan also did not have a sense of any potential timeline, or if there was even any path for him to return to pitching this season. The Twins can only hope he'll be able to return at some point during the postseason if they embark on a deep run in the playoffs. The 28-year-old star right-hander was one of fantasy's most reliable starters this season, registering sevens wins, a 3.60 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 147:23 K:BB across 135 innings for Minnesota.

Joe Ryan To Miss Significant Time With Teres Major Strain

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan's (triceps) injury is worse than the team expected. Ryan is headed to the 15-day injured list and was diagnosed with a Grade 2 teres major strain that will take "weeks to months" to heal, according to manager Rocco Baldelli. The Twins didn't rule him out for the season just yet, but it's certainly more severe than initial indications. It's a major blow to a Twins team looking to get into the postseason. It's also a big blow for Ryan's fantasy managers, as there's a very good chance we won't see him pitch again in 2024. Minnesota will call up right-hander Louie Varland to start Game 2 of a doubleheader on Friday against the visiting division-rival Cleveland Guardians, and he could stick around in the rotation in Ryan's spot for the foreseeable future.

Joe Ryan Undergoing MRI Exam

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan (triceps) is undergoing an MRI exam on Thursday after being forced to leave his start early on Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs with right-triceps tightness after two innings of work. We should have word on the results sooner than later and whether Ryan will be forced to the 15-day injured list. The Twins were optimistic on Wednesday that the 28-year-old's injury wasn't a long-term one, but that doesn't mean they won't put him on the IL and have him rest up for at least two weeks. In four starts since the All-Star break in mid-July, Ryan is 1-3 after allowing 10 runs (nine earned) on 14 hits (three homers) while walking four and striking out 23 in 20 1/3 innings. With a 27.3% strikeout rate and career-low 4.3% walk rate, Ryan has been a fantasy asset in most leagues in 2024.

Joe Ryan Leaves Early Wednesday With Triceps Tightness

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan (triceps) left his outing early in the bottom of the third inning on Wednesday versus the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field due to right-triceps tightness. Before calling for trainers, Ryan had allowed an earned run on a home run while walking none and striking out two in two innings pitched. Fantasy managers should be pretty worried until we know more about the severity of the 28-year-old's injury. Coming into Wednesday's start, Ryan had gone 7-7 with a 3.59 ERA (3.38 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP, 145 strikeouts and only 23 walks in 133 innings over 22 starts in his fourth year in the big leagues. His combination of a 27.3% strikeout rate and career-low 4.3% walk rate made have made him relevant in all fantasy leagues, but fantasy managers may want to brace for a potential stint on the injured list.

Joe Ryan Looks Excellent On Sunday

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan was outstanding on the mound during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Ryan recorded 10 strikeouts as he allowed two runs (one earned) in a no-decision on Sunday. The right-hander gave up six hits and didn't walk any batters during this outing. He was shaky during his last start, but Ryan rebounded nicely on Sunday. He'll look to keep the good times rolling against the Houston Astros prior to the All-Star break.

Joe Ryan Records Fifth Victory

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan improved his record to 5-5 by defeating the Oakland Athletics on Thursday. Ryan tossed seven innings and allowed three hits, two runs, one walk and recorded five strikeouts. All of Ryan's runs came off a Tyler Soderstrom two-run homer in the top of the fourth inning. The right-hander has been putting together a strong season on the hill and remains a consistent option near the top of managers rotations. Ryan will carry a 3.24 ERA into his next start versus the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday. Managers shouldn't hesitate to start Ryan when it's his turn in the rotation.

Joe Ryan Tosses Gem Against Royals

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan allowed one run on four hits across seven innings of work during Monday's 6-5 win over the Kansas City Royals. He struck out nine batters and did not issue a walk. The Twins bullpen made things closer than they should have been in this one, but Ryan still thankfully came away with the win. The 27-year-old has now produced a quality start in six of his last seven outings. Ryan is quickly becoming a must-start option every time he takes the mound as he now owns a 2.96 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 73:9 K:BB through 11 starts this season. His next projected outing is scheduled for Saturday on the road against the Houston Astros. Fantasy managers should fire him up again with confidence.
