The Toronto Blue Jays officially signed Ryu on December 27th, 2019.
A year ago today (December 27th, 2019), the Toronto Blue Jays bolstered their team and rotation when they signed Hyun-Jin Ryu to a four year, $80 million contract. This signing helped accelerate the rebuild coming off a 95 loss season.
