Dodgers News: Hyun-Jin Ryu Believes Spot In Opening Day Rotation Is Feasible

Assuming full health holds up throughout camp, the Los Angeles Dodgers will have an abundance of starting pitchers to select from in order to round out their rotation come Opening Day of the 2017 season.

Clayton Kershaw, Rich Hill and Kenta Maeda are locks, which leaves 40 percent of the rotation to be determined. Scott Kazmir, Brandon McCarthy, Hyun-Jin Ryu, Brock Stewart, Ross Stripling and Alex Wood reported to camp vying to fill the remaining two spots. To a lesser degree so too is Julio Urias, though he’s a candidate to remain in extended Spring Training.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts recently said there is not a set timeline on when decisions pertaining to the rotation would need to be made.
