Hyun-Jin Ryu Destroyed By Diamondbacks On Thursday
5 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers starter Hyun-Jin Ryu allowed seven runs on 10 hits across 4 2/3 innings of work during Thursday's 11-5 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. He struck out four batters while walking one. He has surrendered 18 runs over his past 14 2/3 innings. This poor performance is uncharacteristic for the South Korean. He owns a 12-5 record on the season to go along with a 2.35 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 137/20 K/BB rate. Ryu has been one of the best pitchers in baseball for the majority of the year, which makes his recent struggles strange. As long as he is healthy, he is a must-start option every time he takes the mound. He'll look to bounce back at home against the Colorado Rockies in his next projected start.
