After more than a year of rehabilitation following elbow ligament reconstruction surgery, Ryu Hyun-jin (36, Toronto Blue Jays) appears to be close to returning to the mound.
Ryu threw out of the bullpen in front of team officials at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California, where the team played an away game on Sunday (June 27).
After four rehabilitation appearances in the minors, Hyun-jin joined the Toronto roster to accompany the team to Los Angeles, where he showed off his full recovery in front of manager John Schneider.
As Toronto announced Kevin Gausman, Alex Manoa, and Jose Berrios as the starting pitchers for the three-game series against the Los Angeles Angels, local media speculated that Ryu would make his return in one of four games against the Baltimore Orioles scheduled for August 1-4. The Baltimore game will be played at Rogers Centre in Ontario, Canada.바카라사이트
