The Rangers placed starting pitcher Yu Darvish on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday, retroactive to July 7, with fatigue of his trapezius muscle. He is expected to only miss Thursday's start and the All-Star Game before returning July 22, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Darvish gave up a season-high five earned runs in six innings his last start Saturday. He is 8-4 with a 3.02 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and a league-best 157 strikeouts in 119 1/3 innings.
