Darvish has been out since May due to his elbow. There have been plenty of questions about when he would return and very few answers. His recovery even created a controversy thanks to the remarks from Alex Rodriguez.
Though Darvish only has a 4.95 ERA this season, he had allowed just two runs over his two most recent outings. Chicago already has gotten a boost from Cole Hamels. Perhaps Darvish could also breathe some new life into the rotation.
