Did Yu Darvish struggles last night spell clear answer for Rangers' contract decision?

Yu Darvish was not at his best Sunday night.

His fastball, as it occasionally is, was willful when he tried to command it. He gave back two early one-run leads. He exited after five innings a day after the Rangers maxed out their long reliever. It was, quite frankly, about as badly as he has pitched this season.

I've seen enough.

Offer the man a contract, already.

Even when he's been "bad," he's found a way to pitch effectively.

If I'm Jon Daniels, I'm ready to offer him a contract right here and now.
