Hyun-Jin Ryu agrees to 4-year, $80M deal with Blue Jays
Ryu, who had returned to the Dodgers after accepting a qualifying offer, made his first All-Star team last summer. He finished the season with a 14-5 mark and an NL-best 2.32 ERA, walked only 24 batters and had 163 strikeouts in 182⅔ innings. He completed at least seven innings without allowing more than three runs in 15 of his 29 starts.
Ryu was a star in South Korea when the Dodgers signed him in December 2012. He pitched effectively during his first two years in the United States, but he underwent shoulder surgery and wound up making only one start from 2015 to 2016. Ryu regained some of his footing in 2017, then parlayed that into a two-year stretch in which he was among the game's most effective pitchers.
