Rest-of-Season Projections
Assigned to Triple-A Memphis
Ryan was assigned to minor league camp Wednesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
ANALYSIS
The relief pitcher was invited to spring training as a potential third left-handed option in the Cardinals' bullpen heading into the 2022 season, but he'll begin the campaign with Triple-A Memphis. Ryan struggled to a 6.75 ERA and 1.73 WHIP over 13.1 innings with the Cubs in 2021. He'll look to bring those numbers back down closer to his career figures of a 4.05 ERA and 1.38 WHIP this year.

Ryan took a bit of a step back in 2020, though (as is the case with most pitchers) it's hard to draw many conclusions from a condensed season. The lefty appeared in 18 games for the Cubs, recording 11 strikeouts in 15.2 innings to go along with a 5.17 ERA and 1.40 WHIP. In 2019, Ryan recorded 58 strikeouts, a 3.54 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP across 61 innings. His undoing last season was a rough August, during which he posted a 7.71 ERA in nine appearances. Under normal circumstances, he may have been able to offset that hiccup with better stats the rest of the year, but it was too much to overcome in just 60 team games. Never a big strikeout guy, the 29-year-old has still been able to deliver some decent results, most notably the 3.07 ERA and 1.13 WHIP he recorded in 55.2 innings with the Tigers in 2016. The lack of whiffs probably keeps Ryan out of the closer conversation, though, and limits his fantasy appeal.
