Good luck hitting Yu Darvish

[cezero]

Darvish making the $18.5 million Texas is paying for him per year worth it...this year, anyway.

Pitchers always have the upper hand their first year in the majors. We'll see if he can keep it up.

This would be his second year in the majors and he's only making 9.5 million this year...

thanks, my mistake.

I didn't say he was making $18.5 million this year. I said the Rangers are paying $18.5 million per year for him, which is a fact. The posting fee to get him from Japan was massive.

So far its looking like he's giving them excess value and its still loads cheaper than the cost of Greinke, Felix and Verlander's contracts.

So far, yes, and it will probably continue. I've got nothing against him.

$18.5 milion/year is no small investment for the Rangers for the next 5 years, though. No doubt he'll probably end up being worth it.

I don't even think there is a question about keeping it up

I didn't say he wouldn't, but he will have to do big work to beat out the guy for the Tigers. His wins total will mean a lot more than it should.

I think Felix Hernandez is in the lead IMO
