Sportsnet, a Canadian sports media outlet, suggested that Ryu Hyun-jin is a target for the Toronto club to consider extending the contract.
Sportsnet reported in detail about Ryu Hyun-jin’s 2nd win of the season against Cincinnati through a radio broadcast, and said that the Toronto club could consider extending the contract for Ryu Hyun-jin, whose 4-year contract ends at the end of this season.
The broadcast shows that the Toronto club tentatively has five starting pitchers next year, including Gazman, Berrios, Bassit, and Kikuchi and Manoa, but given Ryu Hyun-jin’s current performance, a one-year contract or two-year contract with an option is expected. He expressed his opinion that a contract could be offered.
However, it was predicted that if Ryu Hyun-jin becomes a free agent, there is a possibility of going to the Western District team, such as the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he played.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who signed a contract worth $80 million for 4 years with the Toronto club in December 2019, had elbow surgery in June of last year and was absent for 1 year and 2 months, then returned on the 2nd and won 2 wins and 1 loss in 4 games. He has an ERA of 1.89.
