Mariners' Ryder Ryan: Loses 40-man spot

The Mariners outrighted Ryan to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday after he cleared waivers.

Ryan reached the big leagues for the first time in 2023 during his age-28 campaign, making a lone appearance out of the Seattle bullpen on Aug. 11 before being sent back to Tacoma less than a week later. The right-hander posted a solid 3.76 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 56:22 K:BB over a larger sample of 55 innings in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, but the Mariners felt his 40-man roster spot could be used better elsewhere.
