Ryu tossed four innings of scoreless relief Thursday, picking up his first career save in a 7-3 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old made his first relief appearance of the season after being bumped from the rotation this week. Even with his successful debut as a long reliever, it is unclear if the Dodgers will keep Ryu in the majors in that role, or if they will send him to the minors so he can stay on a regular pitching schedule in the event they need him to fill in for an injured starter. Whatever the case may be, his demotion from the rotation diminishes his fantasy value.
