Fear The Chorizo

He then blew out his elbow in 2024, didnt pitch at all in 2025, and cant stay on the mound in 2026 because of hamstring problems. If you want to go ahead and send Ryan out there for 150+ IP next season, have at it - i'll tell you he wont get there. The more likely scenario is the ship is sailing away on Ryan's ceiling to be a quality starting pitcher as a big leaguer and his injury history and delayed development has him headed to the bullpen if he wants an extended mlb career.

Counter-counterpoint : Because of injuries, Ryan has been able to eclipse 100IP in only 1 of his professional seasons. At this rate he'll be ramped up to a full mlb starting pitcher workload by the time he reaches free agency at 32. The truth is it would be a surprise for Ryan to last long enough as a pitcher to ever reach free agency based on his career arc and agr he's already reached.

Totally get that and agree when it comes to recycling concrete on road work projects and even building demolition work, but not in the case of large wind turbines - the amount of rebar/steel and concrete and the depth it's in the ground make it economically and oftentimes logistically impractical to dig up/break up and recycle. Think of a 50-80 foot diameter and 15-20' deep chunk of concrete buried in the ground that is chock full of rebar (roughly 750 cubic yards of concrete or more). Can it be done? sure. Would you want the the energy balance and cost of all the equipment needed to accomplish that counting against the carbon footprint of a turbine? If you did, that wind turbine would look far dirtier than the equivalent mass of high sulphur coal needed to produce the same amount of "green" energy.

Well, then it's win win....but there 100% HAS to be full revenue sharing 1st

That isnt a conspiracy theory in my opinion

If Henderson is discounted in any way due to his injury history, then both Dodger pitching prospects in this trade are total bums, too. Ryan can't even stay healthy enough this season.

It absolutely exists - remember in the 90s when the yankees where outbidding everyone and winning everything, so many of their blue chip prospects they traded away amounted to nothing, too.

Don't need a salary cap or floor nearly as much as baseball needs full revenue sharing. I would bet the Dodgers bring in more revenue themselves that doesnt need to be shared than the bottom half of mlb combined

Sounds like Brandon Woodruff along with that growing injury history...and he's only a couple years younger than him, too. More comparable to him than a much younger Henderson, who has actually been able to pitch the past few years at the MLB level.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least to see the Dodgers announce a mega deal extension for Skubal before the end of this league year....typically that would never happen with a Boras client in a free agent year - but skubal may want to cash in a super long, guaranteed contract with the team he'll probably sign with eventually, and who knows when a new CBA will be signed along with what free agent contract parameters will be in it?

Maybe the Brewers should call the Dodgers and ask if Glasnow is available - dude is getting paid close to $30M a year and he just lost his spot in the postseason rotation. Such a joke

I'd take Drohan over Ryan 100 times out of 100. Ryan had a handful of good starts with the dodgers back in 2024, blew his elbow out, and now has made less than 10 starts in AAA with a 1.3 WHIP and mid 4's ERA as an almost 28 yr old. He's still a prospect because he didnt exhaust his rookie eligibility back in 2024 ....the fact he's still a top 100 is only because he was in the Dodger organization

The Dodgers arent deep with top milb pitching either - they just see their young pitching prospects blow their arms out and then have the luxury of allowing them to take forever and a day to resume pitching and hype them up enough for teams to think they're great prospects. Both Ryan and Smith aren't setting the world on fire this season in the minors and both are coming off major arm injuries.

This feels like many are undervaluing, not overvaluing Brewers prospects - including Brewers fans. The potential "comp" package scenarios people are throwing out there online all blow what the Dodgers actually had to give up out of the water

Logan Henderson is way more valuable than River freaking Ryan...not to mention 3 years younger
