River Ryan could potentially start the 2025 season on the injured list, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the Dodgers' pitching rotation. As the team navigates various injury concerns among their pitchers, Ryan's status remains a question mark, highlighting the depth challenges the Dodgers may face as they prepare for the upcoming season.

River Ryan pitched well in his third career start, navigating around five hits and three walks to limit the damage to only a two-run homer by Brent Rooker. He was pulled in the fifth inning with the bases loaded and two outs, making way for Evan Phillips, who successfully struck out Rooker to escape the jam. Overall, Ryan's performance contributed to the Dodgers' crucial win against the Athletics.
