Hyun-Jin Ryu might not be on the Dodgers' NLDS roster

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts suggested that pitcher Hyun-Jin Ryu might be left off the team's NLDS roster, per Southern California News Group's J.P. Hoornstra.

What It Means:

The Dodgers will start Clayton Kershaw, Rich Hill, Yu Darvish and Alex Wood, in that order. Ryu could be available as a bullpen arm, but Roberts says that he would probably be uncomfortable in that role, adding "If he's on the roster, he starts."

In 24 starts, Ryu is 5-9 with a 4.74 FIP on the year. His 1.87 nERD is just 6th among Dodgers' pitchers in 2017.
