Expert Note
View More NotesDarvish's season was a tale of two halves. He was utterly unplayable to begin the season, tallying a 1.56 WHIP through May and walking roughly six batters per nine innings. But Darvish pulled out of it and then some, walking only seven batters over his final 14 starts, during which he had a 2.95 ERA and 0.83 WHIP. Can you fully trust Darvish? Probably not? But should you expect him to pitch closer to his second half than his first? For sure.

Yu Darvish is not opting out of his contract with the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
Darvish would've been leaving four years and $81 million on the table. He had a dominant second half (2.76 ERA) but likely wouldn't have found that type of money on the open market. The 33-year-old finished the year with a whopping 229 strikeouts in 178 2/3 innings.
