Dodgers Sign Hyun-Jin Ryu

Transporting this many pitchers might violate the Byron Mann Act!

The Dodgers have signed Korean left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu, tweets Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. Terms of the deal… are not yet known.

The Dodgers expect Ryu to be part of their starting rotation next season, reports the Los Angeles Times’ Dylan Hernandez...

Ryu, represented by Scott Boras, was posted by the Hanwha Eagles last month and the Dodgers won his negotiating rights with a bid worth a bit more than $25.7MM. The 25-year-old has been one of the Korea Baseball Organization’s most dominant pitchers over the last several years, helping Korea win Olympic gold in 2008 and finish second in the 2009 World Baseball Classic. Ryu went 9-9 with a 2.66 ERA last season for last place Hanwha with 210 strikeouts in 182 2/3 innings. He has a 2.80 ERA over his seven-year career in Korea.
