With free agency in the early stages, the Dodgers have been linked to Anthony Rendon and Josh Donaldson. When it comes to the pitching front, the Dodgers do not appear to be prioritizing Hyun-Jin Ryu. Ryu told the Yonhap News Agency that Scott Boras is handling all his negotiations but he does not think there has been much talk with the Dodgers.
While things could certainly change as the Winter Meetings approach, it could signal that the Dodgers are going to let Ryu go and pursue other starting pitchers. The only way the Dodgers could aim higher than Ryu is by targeting Gerrit Cole or Stephen Strasburg.
