Ryu Hyun-jin (35, Toronto Blue Jays), who endured the pain and threw, was eventually placed on the 15-day disabled list (IL).
On the 3rd (Korean time), the Toronto club decided and announced Ryu Hyun-jin’s listing in the IL. The reason for the IL listing is ‘Left forearm inflammation’.
Ryu Hyun-jin started the day before in the 2022 MLB home game once morest the Chicago White Sox at the Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, throwing only 58 balls in 4 innings (4 hits, 3 runs and 2 earned runs) before mounding the mound. came down
The reason for the early steel plate was ‘uncomfortable feeling in the left forearm’.
After the game, Ryu Hyun-jin said, “It felt similar to April (when I was in the IL). Before the game, I thought I might throw as usual. After the game is over, I regret (forcing the start).”
Hyunjin Ryu suffered a left forearm pain following the Oakland Athletics game on April 17, and made his first IL debut on April 18.
Hyun-Jin Ryu had been rehabilitating for nearly a month until his comeback game once morest the Tampa Bay Rays on May 15th.
After rehab, the results were good.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who had been sluggish in two games in April (3⅓ innings once morest the Texas Rangers on the 11th, five hits and six runs, once morest Oakland on the 17th, four innings, six hits and five runs), played three games in May ( once morest Tampa Bay on the 15th, 4⅔ innings, 4 hits and one run, 21 He rebounded in 6 innings once morest the Cincinnati Reds and no runs in 6 innings, and 6 hits and 2 runs in 5 innings once morest the Los Angeles Angels on the 27th).
But there were also danger signs.
On the 27th of last month, when Hyun-Jin Ryu played his first match once morest Shohei Ohtani, once morest the Angels, Hyun-Jin Ryu threw only 65 balls and crossed the mound.
After the Angels game, manager Charlie Montoyo said, “Hyun-Jin Ryu felt discomfort in his left elbow, so he changed it following five innings.”
Ryu Hyun-jin, with an uncomfortable feeling remaining in his left forearm, forced to start once morest the White Sox on the 2nd, and eventually got sick.
Ryu Hyun-jin showed discomfort in his forearm with his expression from the 4th inning once morest the White Sox. The average fastball speed was also 141 km/h, which was 3 km/h slower than the season average (144 km/h).
Manager Montoyo said, “Thanks to Hyun-Jin Ryu, we were able to save the bullpen. He deserves praise enough. If Hyun-Jin Ryu didn’t throw four innings, our game would have been more difficult.”
He was praised by the commander for his responsible pitching, but the pain cannot be overcome by will alone.
In the end, Ryu Hyun-jin was listed in the IL for the second time in the season following April 18. The reason for IL listing is the same as inflammation of the left forearm.
Looking back at the case in April, it is expected that it will take regarding a month to return to the major leagues.
This season, Hyun-Jin Ryu appeared in six games and struggled with two wins and an ERA of 5.33. Here, I also tasted the ‘pain’ of climbing to the IL twice in two months following the opening.
