He was bailed out by the bullpen in that inning, but Philadelphia struck for four runs in the next inning to erase the possibility of a Darvish win. Darvish's next start Monday against the league-worst Padres offense could be a dominant one.","date":"Tue Sep 19"},"fullName":"Yu Darvish","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"After returning from March 2015 Tommy John surgery, Darvish flashed the same, unhittable stuff he has always possessed: He recorded his third career campaign of at least 10 starts and a strikeout rate of at least 30 percent (that a percentage of total batters faced), and his 812 strikeouts through 100 career big-league starts is an all-time record by nearly 50 more than anyone else. Most importantly, his fastball velocity had actually improved upon his return, a good sign since velocity of that pitch is critical to his success. Still, Darvish's health remains a concern, as he has made six career trips to the DL including at least one in each of his past four seasons, his most recent trip due not to his recovery from elbow surgery but rather right shoulder discomfort. Given 30 starts, he could be one of the five most productive pitchers in baseball, and of the pitchers ranked outside the top 10, his ceiling is arguably the highest. Just know the risk you're absorbing if you take that chance in the early rounds.","seasonId":2017,"date":"Tue Feb 21"},"playerRater30DAY":1,"playerRater15DAY":4.6,"positionRank":25}
