While Gerrit Cole, Anthony Rendon and Stephen Strasburg have garnered the most headlines among the 2019 MLB free agent class, the rest of the field consisted of talented players in their own right.
The group included Hyun-Jin Ryu, who is coming off a career 2019 season with the Los Angeles Dodgers in which he finished second in National League Cy Young Award voting. The left-hander represented a solid fallback option to teams that miss out on Cole and Strasburg.
Though the Dodgers were believed to have interest in re-signing Ryu, he was also a target for other clubs and reportedly agreed to a four-year, $80 million contract with the Toronto Blue Jays.
