[QUOTE="ChiefIllini, post: 1455272, member: 588522"] Darvish's start to last season was anything but promising. Now you can say maybe that was a precursor to the injury, or that sample size was too small (which is absolutely true), but I think there's plenty to be concerned about. Spring training reports are nice to hear, but his first box score looked like something straight out of Chatwood's history book--not something to strive for. He's trended downward for a few years now and the injury last year cant possibly help. Concern for his overall performance is real. Anyways, long season ahead. Nothing is set in stone yet, but these next 5 years are going to be tough to maneuver if Yu and Jason both dont perform a decent amount above replacement level. 40m+ is a hard pill to swallow for any team.
