Yu, too?
Sad, isn't it? Japanese pitcher Yu Darvish faces season-ending Tommy John surgery.
Darvish is the latest name on what has become too long a list of MLB and NPB hurlers to undergo the arm repair procedure that takes a year or more off a player's career. Moreover, it seems a lot of Japanese pitchers who have gone supposedly healthy to the majors in recent years via free agency or posting ran into trouble and required TJS.
