River Ryan’s Return to the Mound | Detroit Tigers News

River Ryan, the Tigers’ top pitching prospect since the Skubal trade, is set to make his first start since mid-June—after a hamstring injury—today against the Iowa Cubs. Coming off a shaky stint with the Dodgers (36⅓ IP, 4.46 ERA), Ryan’s brief outing will likely be just three innings as a tune-up. Ranked fourth in the Tigers’ system by MLB Pipeline, he’s a former infielder turned elite arm, seen by some as one of the best young pitchers in the minors. Though there’s buzz about a potential big league call-up after Skubal and Mize’s departures, no timeline exists yet. Fans are watching closely to see if he can regain form and continue his ascent.
