There really isn't anything about Ryan to get excited about. He has limited upside, and isn't really worth your time unless you are desperate for a cheap source of steals. .275-45-3-35-10 in 350 at bats
Positives / Upside Ryan had a fantastic 2009 in which he hit .292 and stole 14 bases in just 390 at bats. He is a cheap source of steals, and proved last year that he can swing the stick enough to post a strong average. He won't fit a lot of homeruns, but should score a decent number of runs as a member of a pretty strong Cards' line-up.
Negatives / Downside Ryan was never a prospect and his minor league numbers suggest that Ryan is not someone who can conistently post an average near .300. Even his 14 stolen bases seem like an overachievement since he only topped that total once in the minors. Ryan's value to a further hit when the Cards recently signed Felipe Lopez, who could easily steal at bats from both Ryan and Skip Schumaker.
Recommendation Only at a discount
Draft Position 336
