Padres' Yu Darvish: Struggles in return to rotation
Yu Darvish did not factor into the decision in an extra-inning win over the Tigers on Wednesday, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks over 2.2 innings while striking out four.Darvish had a hard time getting through Detroit's lineup right from the jump, giving up a solo homer to Matt Vierling with two outs in the first before needing 47 pitches to get through the first two frames. He would be relieved by Yuki Matsui with two outs in the third, marking his shortest outing of the campaign -- though that was somewhat expected in Darvish's first start since returning from the injured list due to elbow inflammation. The veteran right-hander will look for better results in his next start, which is currently projected for next week in Seattle.

Padres' Yu Darvish: Activated for Wednesday's start
The San Diego Padres reinstated Yu Darvish (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Tigers.The veteran right-hander is poised to make his first start for the Padres since May 29 after recovering from elbow inflammation. Darvish built up to 66 pitches in a simulated game Friday but is returning without a minor-league rehab assignment, so he's likely to have some workload restrictions in his first game action in over three months.

Padres' Yu Darvish: Confirmed for Wednesday start
Yu Darvish (elbow) will be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Tigers, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.Darvish hasn't pitched for the San Diego Padres since May 29, but after throwing 66 pitches in a simulated game Friday and then completing a bullpen session Monday, he's in the line to return to action versus Detroit.

Padres' Yu Darvish: Tracking toward return Wednesday
Yu Darvish (elbow) is expected to rejoin the San Diego Padres' rotation Wednesday against the Tigers, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.Darvish threw 66 pitches in a simulated game against minor leaguers last Friday and followed that up with a bullpen session Monday. The Padres have not yet confirmed that Darvish is in line to return Wednesday, but things appear to be pointing in that direction. Darvish hasn't made a start for the Padres since late May and his one rehab start came back on June 19, so it would not be a surprise if there's some rust Wednesday.

Padres' Yu Darvish: Hurls 66 pitches vs. minor leaguers
Yu Darvish (personal/elbow) threw 66 pitches over four innings Friday in a controlled game against Cincinnati minor leaguers, Bernie Wilson of the Associated Press reports.Darvish continues to ramp up as he looks to return from an absence of over three months, initially due to an elbow injury and then because of a personal matter. The veteran right-hander threw on his own for a period while he was away from the team, and he's since tossed a bullpen and a sim game in addition to Friday's outing against minor leaguers, so he's not as far off as a starting pitcher might typically be after such a long absence. Per Wilson, Darvish felt fine following Friday's controlled game, but Darvish's next steps are yet to be determined.

Padres' Yu Darvish: Throws bullpen, feeling healthy
Yu Darvish (elbow) threw a 27-pitch bullpen Friday and said he's feeling healthy, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.Darvish was activated from the restricted list Friday after dealing with a personal matter back home, and he was shifted to the 15-day injured list once he rejoined the San Diego Padres in San Diego. He continued to throw while he was away from the team and was able to build up to 27 pitches Friday. Darvish also said Friday that he's feeling good and his placement on the IL was just "a matter of ramping up."

Padres' Yu Darvish: Shifts back to IL
Yu Darvish (personal/elbow) was reinstated from the restricted list and returned to the 15-day injured list Friday.While Darvish will rejoin the San Diego Padres in San Diego on Friday, he'll still have some hurdles to clear before rejoining the active roster. The right-hander hasn't pitched since May 29 after sustaining a left groin strain. He's had his recovery delayed twice, experiencing elbow inflammation right before his expected activation in late June and then going on the restricted list July 6 as he dealt with a personal matter. The 37-year-old has been throwing on his own and even threw a live batting practice session at a San Diego-area high school Aug. 12, but it's unclear how close he might be to coming off the IL.
