Rosenthal said industry expectation for Ryu is 4yr, 80m.

If Ryu gets injured and/or misses significant time (high probability, based on the last 5 years), who replaces him? Because he’s pitched 127+ innings just once since 2015.

anyone can get injured at any time. If you can get Ryu, you do it.

[BackUpTheTruck]

We should sign both Ryu and Keuchel if Ryu costs 4/$80 million.

[Vlad27Trout27]

it'll be definently interesting to see Ryu getting 20 mil for 4 years.

In today's mlbtr chat, Connor Byrne kept stating over and over again that Ryu was the best available free agent pitcher and the Angels should sign him.

Ryu has the stuff to be an ace but for someone who is so injury prone there is no way I’d feel comfortable giving him a contract like that

The Dodgers seem they usually re-sign their best free agents: Jansen, Turner, Hill in recent years. They extended Kershaw. When was the last time they let someone good get away? I’m sure there have been some but I can’t think of any recent ones off the top of my head.

Yet, they haven’t re-signed Ryu.....

He's overweight and doesn't concern himself at all with his fitness.  They've tried to get him to be more in line with such but he does whatever he wants.

This has been my argument this entire off-season.  The Dodgers must know something.

Yeah, this is my biggest concern with Ryu. What do they see that concerns them? Health? Work ethic? Something else?

[Pancake Bear]

I feel like if we pursued Ryu, you’d want it with a low base heavily centered on incentives, but I kinda doubt that’ll happen. 

[Angels_Fan]

He may be the kind of player to get his contract then mail it in. He finally had his first healthy season in 5 years during a contract year.

Ryu had the lowest ERA in all of baseball last year, but somehow he isn't good enough to pitch for the Angels?

Funny world we live in.

He is also very injury prone.  Again, why haven't the Dodgers resigned him like they usually do to their own free agents?
