A Sunday morning MRI confirmed that River Ryan’s right forearm tightness was significant enough to sideline him for at least the next two months.
Dodgers rookie pitcher River Ryan will miss the rest of the season with an elbow injury, Dave Roberts announced Sunday, a day after Ryan exited his start in the Dodgers’ 4-1 win over the Pirates on Saturday with what was termed right forearm tightness. As of Sunday morning, Roberts said Ryan was still waiting on “other scans” to determine the exact diagnosis of his injury.
Despite his inexperience, the right-hander had been “making a case” to be part of the Dodgers’ pitching plans down the stretch, Roberts said, impressing with his high-velocity fastball and swing-and-miss slider/curveball combination. Ryan’s injury the latest to strike the Dodgers’ short-handed pitching staff. It continued a particularly alarming pattern of injuries among young Dodgers pitchers.
