Yu Darvish notches fifth victory Sunday night

Yu Darvish allowed five hits and two runs (both earned) while walking four and striking out seven over five innings Sunday night against Detroit at Comerica Park. It wasn't the most efficient of outings but it was enough to get Darvish the win as the Rangers' defeated the Tigers 5-2. With the win, Darvish is 5-2 on the year. He will pitch again on Saturday against Marco Estrada and the Blue Jays in Toronto.
Fantasy Impact:
If you're a pitcher, a good pitcher, when you are having an 'off' night, you have to limit damage and that is what Darvish did. He is very talented and is in the process of having a strong year. He is carrying a 3.82 FIP along with a 2.83 ERA. Supplement that with a solid 9.61 K/9 and you have the ingredients of what could be a tremendous year if he gets more efficient, and he should do just that.
