Calls for the Texas Rangers to trade Yu Darvish, and crass remarks about the need to extend his contract immediately, started leaking onto social media early Wednesday night.
Those tired witticisms usually come from the bitter or disenfranchised, the look-at-me types and the uninformed, every time Darvish doesn’t fulfill the expectations he takes with him to the mound.
The Rangers were pleased with how Darvish pitched over six innings in a 5-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians. He allowed three runs (two earned) on seven hits and left the start without any concerns about the triceps tightness that forced out of his last start.
