2016 Dodgers review: Hyun-jin Ryu

2016 was essentially a lost season for Dodgers pitcher Hyun-jin Ryu, his second straight.

What went right

Ryu worked his way back from 2015 surgery to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder, and finally pitched again in the majors on July 7, after missing a year and a half.

What went wrong

In that start, Ryu allowed at least a run in four of the five innings he started, and took the loss against the Padres.

But to make matters worse, that was his only start of the year. Soon after, Ryu reported elbow discomfort and he was placed on the disabled list with left elbow discomfort.
