Hyun-Jin Ryu and the Blue Jays made it official this past Friday when the hurler passed his medical and the team introduced their ace to the media at the Rogers Centre in Toronto. After a few days of sightseeing with his wife, Ryu returned to Korea to continue training for the upcoming season.
Ryu was peppered with questions at the airport about the upcoming season and his expectations pitching in the American League East. Here are some excerpts and quotes from Ryu from his Q&A with the Korean media.
“I don’t think there’s anything I need to change, the most important thing is to make sure I can command the pitches that I already have in my repertoire, If I have good command, then I think I’ll be able to keep the ball in the park.
