Dodgers’ rotation will easily overcome the loss of Hyun-Jin Ryu

Hyun-Jin Ryu was another successful import for the Dodgers as the was with the club since 2013. After a stellar but injury-shortened 2018 season, Ryu returned to the Dodgers by accepting the qualifying offer. Hyun-Jin followed up his strong abbreviated season with a Cy Young worthy season that saw him finish as a finalist for the National League Cy Young award.

Although Ryu did not win the award he cashed in his superb season by signing a four year $80 million dollar contract with the Toronto Blue Jays. For Ryu, he has signed what will likely be his final contract in the big leagues and for the Dodgers, they saw one of their most reliable starters from 2019 depart but their rotation will be just fine for 2020.
