Ryan Yarbrough reveals what he'll do with his Dodgers ring now that he's a Yankee

Former LA Dodger and current New York Yankees pitcher Ryan Yarbrough is set to receive his World Series ring this weekend. The hard-throwing lefty pitched for the Dodgers last season until he was designated for assignment at the end of July.

Although he was not on the team when they won the World Series, he will still receive a ring. This will be his first World Series ring, and as a member of the Yankees, he does not plan on showing it off to everyone.

Yarbrough spoke with the crew at "Foul Territory" to discuss what he plans to do with the ring. With the Bronx Bombers losing to the Dodgers in the Fall Classic, he said he will cherish it from the shadows.

"Whenever I signed here, I was like, 'I will stash that thing away so fast.' And you know, maybe look at it later or something. But, you know, I definitely can't bring that thing around, for sure," Yarbrough said.

It was a tough loss for the Yankees, and Yarbrough does not plan to bring the ring around his current team. They could not find their footing in the final series, losing 4-1.

"I'm sure somebody will, and you know, we'll have to just do it very discreetly if that's the case. But, we'll try and keep that pretty low key" he added.

Yarbrough explained he would be more than willing to show any of his teammates if they ask. He just does not want to rub last year’s loss in his current club’s face.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone has had to shuffle the pitching rotation this year. They lost their ace, Gerrit Cole, earlier in the season after he underwent Tommy John surgery.

American League Rookie of the Year Luis Gil has also been sidelined with a strained right lat since spring training. Marcus Stroman is also on the injured list with a knee injury.

The former Dodgers pitcher Ryan Yarbrough has stepped up for the Bronx Bombers in a big way. He has started four games this season, posting a 2-0 record with a 3.06 ERA across 35.1 innings. He has helped his team win three of his last four appearances.
