On one hand, two runs on five hits in just over two innings is not good. On the other hand, Ryan threw 69 percent of his pitches for strikes, while posting a 13 percent swinging strike rate and 33 percent CSW. He sat 97.4 mph on his four-seamer, which he got a few whiffs on. He threw all six of his pitches and flashed good swing-and-miss on his changeup to lefties. It remains unlikely that Ryan, who threw 39 pitches in this one, will make it up to the Tigers in the final week of the season, but he should be penciled into their 2027 rotation.
