Ryu will start Game 1 of the NLDS against the Braves on Thursday, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.
The assumption was that Clayton Kershaw would take the mound for Game 1, but manager Dave Roberts selected Ryu to take the hill instead as Kershaw gets Game 2. Ryu was excellent after coming off the disabled list in mid-August, posting a 1.88 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 53:5 K:BB over 52.2 innings.
