Joe Ryan, Pablo Lopez on the Trade Block?

The rebuilding Minnesota Twins have two of the best trade chips in right-handed starting pitchers Joe Ryan and Pablo Lopez, and could continue their aggressive rebuild by trading them away this offseason, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today Sports. Lopez is under team control for two more years at $21.5 million per year, while Ryan has two years of club control and is salary-arbitration eligible after making $3 million in 2025. Ryan, 29, ended his season by giving up five or more runs in four of his last seven outings, but overall, he had a career-best 3.47 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 194:39 K:BB over his 171 innings in his fifth big-league season. Ryan was an All-Star for the first time in his career. Lopez, meanwhile, had an injury-plagued campaign, missing two months early in the year with a Grade 2 teres major strain before being shut down with a right-forearm strain in late September. The 29-year-old is already considered fully healthy, though, and should be a full-go in spring training.

Twins Expected to Keep Joe Ryan

The Minnesota Twins will listen to offers, but are expected to keep starter Joe Ryan, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports. Ryan has been exceptional for the Twins in 2025, being the anchor for their struggling rotation with Pablo Lopez (shoulder) getting injured on June 3 and Bailey Ober (hip) struggling to the tune of a 5.28 ERA. Ryan has been the answer to weathering the storm, with his 2.63 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, and 132/23 K/BB in 116.1 innings pitched. With the Detroit Tigers running away with the AL Central, the Twins (11.5 games back) have become potential sellers at the deadline, with Ryan being the main headline. It appears that the Twins will entertain calls, but unless they get an offer that blows them away, it seems that Ryan will stay in Minnesota for the time being. Although the AL Central looks out of reach, the Twins are five games behind in the Wild Card race.

Twins Not Planning to Trade Joe Ryan

The Minnesota Twins have had no conversations about trading star pitcher Joe Ryan, according to Robert Murray of FanSided. Minnesota is 47-49, 11 1/2 games behind the Detroit Tigers in the AL Central and four games behind the Seattle Mariners for the final American League Wild Card spot. However, Ryan is under team control through the 2027 season, so there's no pressure on the Twins to make a move now. The 29-year-old is having his best year so far in 2025. In 109 1/3 innings (18 starts), Ryan is 9-4 with a 2.72 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, and 121 strikeouts. His 22.9% K-BB rate is excellent, and opposing batters are hitting just .195 against him. Whether he remains in Minnesota or eventually gets moved, Ryan profiles as a high-level fantasy option.

Joe Ryan Generating Significant Trade Buzz

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan is generating significant trade buzz with just weeks remaining before the MLB trade deadline. According to Jon Morosi of the MLB Network, the Boston Red Sox are among the teams showing strong interest in the 29-year-old starter. Morosi also adds that the Twins need to be out of the AL postseason picture and "overwhelmed by an offer." Ryan has been outstanding in 2025, posting an (8-4) record with a 2.76 ERA, 116 strikeouts, and just 21 walks over 104 1/3 innings. He has shown year-over-year improvement, and with arbitration looming in 2026, the Twins may look to capitalize on his value now, as he's set to become a free agent in 2027. A potential move to a contender would only boost Ryan's fantasy appeal. A better offense behind him could lead to more wins and greater value during the fantasy playoff stretch.

Joe Ryan Picks Up Quality Start in Tough-Luck Loss to Marlins

Minnesota Twins starter Joe Ryan was excellent on Tuesday night, throwing seven innings of one-run ball in his team's 2-0 loss to the Miami Marlins. Ryan recorded four strikeouts without walking a batter and allowed just five hits (one homer). The right-hander has been one of the American League's better starters this season, posting a 2.75 ERA, 108 strikeouts and eight wins in 98 1/3 innings pitched (16 starts). He entered the night sporting an elite 23.5% K-BB rate, and his ability to limit free passes is the driving force behind his sterling 0.90 WHIP. Ryan is a high-end starting pitcher option in all fantasy formats. His next scheduled start will come at home on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Joe Ryan Pitches Gem on Saturday

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan turned in yet another strong performance in the team's 3-2 loss to the Houston Astros on Saturday. Ryan did not factor into the decision, but he fired seven innings of two-hit, two-run ball with seven strikeouts and two walks before departing. His only real mistake was the two-run homer he allowed to Astros catcher Yainer Diaz in the third inning. After tallying his seventh quality start of the year, Ryan owns a 2.93 ERA with a superb 89:17 K:BB and a minuscule 0.90 WHIP across 80 innings. He'll make his next start against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday. Ryan dominated the Brewers on May 16 with six scoreless innings, two hits allowed, and nine strikeouts in a 3-0 win.

Joe Ryan Notches Third Straight Victory

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan yielded four hits and two earned runs in his team's 6-3 win against the Toronto Blue Jays. Ryan punched out six batters over five innings of work and issued three free passes to pick up his third straight win. It wasn't the 29-year-old's most efficient outing, as he walked three batters for the second time in as many appearances after not having done so through his first ten. Still, he was effective again, improving to 7-2 on the season. He boasts a superb 2.96 ERA and 0.93 WHIP through 73 innings with an exceptional 82:15 K:BB ratio. Ryan will look to continue his stellar season the next time he toes the rubber -- on the road against the Houston Astros later this week.

Joe Ryan to Pitch in Suspended Game on Wednesday

Minnesota Twins right-hander Joe Ryan will pitch when Monday's suspended game against the division-rival Cleveland Guardians resumes on Wednesday at Target Field, according to The Athletic's Dan Hayes. Right-hander Chris Paddack will then take the ball in the regularly scheduled game on Wednesday, weather permitting. The first game on Wednesday between the Twins and Guardians will resume in the fourth inning with the Twins up 2-1, so Ryan will have an even better shot at picking up a win in this one. Although he won't be able to go quite as deep in this outing as a normal game, fantasy managers should still throw him in their starting lineups against a Guardians team that currently ranks 21st in baseball with a .686 team OPS. Ryan has been great for his fantasy managers in 2025, going 4-2 with a 2.42 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 63 punchouts in 52 innings over his nine starts.

Joe Ryan Shuts Down Brewers to Earn Fourth Win in 2025

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan (4-2) dominated the Milwaukee Brewers in Friday's 3-0 victory, blanking them over six innings and picking up his fourth win of the year. Ryan led the Twins to their 12th consecutive victory, allowing only two hits and a walk while striking out nine. The 28-year-old is putting together a remarkable season so far as his 0.79 WHIP ranks second in baseball among starting pitchers. He lowered his season ERA to 2.42 with a dominant 63:6 K:BB ratio. Ryan is currently slated to make his next start on Wednesday at home against the Guardians.

Joe Ryan Excels In Win Over Giants

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan let up two hits and one earned run over six innings pitched in Saturday's 2-1 win against the San Francisco Giants. He struck out seven batters and walked none in the quality start, improving to 3-2 on the year. The San Francisco native was stellar in his eighth start, able to retire every batter he faced except Heliot Ramos, who accounted for both hits (single, homer) against him. Otherwise, the 28-year-old was locked in and has now recorded three straight appearances allowing one or fewer earned runs and four straight with one or fewer free passes. He'll carry a sterling 2.74 ERA and 0.87 WHIP (46 innings) with an efficient 54:5 K:BB ratio into his next outing against the Milwaukee Brewers.
