Ryu (9-1) picked up the win in Tuesday's 9-0 victory over the Diamondbacks, scattering three hits over seven scoreless innings while striking out two.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran lefty was pitching to contact, which didn't seem like a great plan when the Dodgers committed two errors behind him in the first inning. However, Ryu escaped the early jam and proceeded to not allow a baserunner past second base the rest of the night. It's his sixth straight win and eighth consecutive quality start, and he'll carry a dazzling 1.35 ERA and 71:5 K:BB through 80 innings into a road start against the Angels next Monday.

Ryu (8-1) picked up the win Thursday, blanking the Mets for 7.2 innings and giving up only four hits and one walk while striking out seven.
EDGE Analysis
After seeing his streak of consecutive scoreless innings end at 32 in his last start, Ryu was dominant again in holding the Mets scoreless through 7.2 innings. Ryu has now won five consecutive starts and has given up only two earned runs in 37.2 innings during that stretch. As has been the case all season, the lefty displayed pinpoint control Thursday, throwing 70 of his 106 pitches for strikes and walking only one batter. He also struck out seven to push his season K:BB to a pristine 69:5. The South Korean hurler leads the majors with a microscopic 1.48 ERA and ranks second with a 0.81 WHIP. He'll look to continue his dominance in a matchup with Arizona on Tuesday in his next scheduled start.

Ryu (7-1) allowed only two runs despite yielding 10 hits with three strikeouts and no walks across six innings to earn a victory against the Pirates on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old's streak of 32 straight scoreless innings came to an end, and he yielded a season-high 10 hits, but after allowing two runs to open the second frame, Ryu held the Pirates to 0-for-10 in their last 10 at-bats with runners in scoring position. With more great run support, that was more than enough for Ryu to win his fourth consecutive outing. He is tied for the league lead with seven wins and is tops among NL pitchers with a 1.65 ERA. He also supports a 0.83 WHIP and 62 strikeouts in 65.1 innings this year. Ryu is set to pitch next against the Mets on Thursday.

Ryu (6-1) gave up no runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five through seven innings in a win over the Reds on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Ryu cruised through seven innings to earn his third consecutive win. The left-hander is having a ridiculous stretch, pitching at least seven innings and posting a 0.69 ERA with a 36:1 K:BB in his last five starts. He has a 6-1 record with a 1.52 ERA through nine starts this season. Ryu will makes his next start Saturday at PNC Park.

Ryu (5-1) struck out nine and allowed only one hit and one walk in eight innings to earn a win against Washington on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
With his mom in attendance on Mother's Day, Ryu held the Nationals hitless until Gerardo Parra laced a one-out ground rule double in the eighth. The talented lefty then retired the next two batters in order to extend his scoreless inning streak to 24 -- the longest active streak in the majors. Ryu has been one of the best pitchers in baseball this season, with Sunday's gem lowering his ERA to 1.72 on the season. He also sports a 0.72 WHIP and a magnificent 54:3 K:BB ratio. He'll look to continue his dominance in his next start against Cincinnati on Sunday.

Ryu (4-1) scattered four hits over nine shutout innings while striking out six in Tuesday's 9-0 win over Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The southpaw tossed a Maddux, needing only 93 pitches (67 strikes) to dispatch the opposition. Ryu has been brilliant and, more importantly, healthy so far in 2019, and he'll carry a 2.03 ERA and dazzling 45:2 K:BB through 44.1 innings into his next start Sunday, at home against the Nats.

Ryu gave up one run on four hits with no walks while striking out six through eight innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Ryu tossed another gem, allowing only four baserunners in eight innings. The 32-year-old has seemingly stopped allowing free passes, posting a ridiculous 39:2 K:BB. He has a 3-1 record with a 2.55 ERA and a 0.5 BB/9 through six starts this season. Ryu will look to keep it going in his next start Tuesday against the Braves.

Ryu (3-1) allowed two runs on eight hits while striking out 10 over seven innings in a win over the Pirates on Friday night. He did not issue a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Ryu was outstanding in this one, getting 16 called strikes and a whopping 19 swinging strikes on 105 pitches. Many were frustrated when Ryu landed on the IL after his April 8 outing, thinking "here we go again" with the lefty, but Ryu turned the page on the groin issue in a hurry and has gone 12.2 innings with four earned runs allowed and a 19:1 K:BB in two starts since his activation. The home runs are piling up (nine in 27.1 innings), but because he's been so stingy with the walks, the long ball hasn't really hurt Ryu to this point. He should be locked into active lineups for next week's outing in San Francisco.

Ryu (2-1) took the loss Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out nine over 5.2 innings against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Ryu pitched very well but was victimized by solo home runs in the third and sixth innings from Christian Yelich. The 32-year-old was returning from an IL stint for a groin injury but was able to deliver 92 pitches. Ryu has a 3.10 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP, and he'll look to get back in the win column Thursday against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

The Dodgers activated Ryu (groin) from the 10-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Saturday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
With Ryu back from the IL, the Dodgers will shift Julio Urias back to the bullpen to clear a rotation spot for the lefty. Though Ryu has received a clean bill of health after the recent bout with the groin issue, he might not make for the most comfortable option in DFS and season-long leagues with daily moves while facing a tough Brewers offense at hitter-friendly Miller Park.
