Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan authored a seven-inning gem during a 3-0 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday. The 25-year-old took a perfect game into the seventh inning before Indians infielder Amed Rosario broke up the bid with a single. Ryan, part of the Nelson Cruz trade, struck out four across 85 pitches. Ryan has yet to unlock the 13.0 K/9 rate that he sported in the minors, but that upside alone makes him worth a speculative add in deeper leagues. The right-hander will get a rematch with the Indians during his next start.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan will be called up Wednesday as part of the team's September roster additions. Ryan, who came over to the Twins in the Nelson Cruz trade, will make his debut against the Cubs Wednesday. The 25-year-old Ryan has pitched to a 3.68 ERA with a 91:12 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 66 innings between Triple-A Durham and Triple-A St. Paul. He features a fastball, slider, changeup, and curveball, though his 92-96 MPH heater has been his bread-and-butter pitch in his pro career, thanks to his deceptive delivery. Ryan is an intriguing DFS play on Wednesday's slate, given the fact that the Cubs own the majors' worst strikeout rate- and that the talented righty has racked up 326 strikeouts in 226 career innings.
