I think the title says it all.
- Yu’s on first! Evan Grant explains why the Rangers never seriously tried to re-sign Yu Darvish.
- This is interesting, because I haven’t seen it reported elsewhere before. Jon Heyman reports that Theo Epstein called Jake Arrieta and asked him if he would accept the deal the Cubs gave Darvish before finalizing the signing. Arrieta was appreciative that the Cubs would give him that opportunity, but said no. Anyway, Heyman then looks at what’s up next for Arrieta and where he might sign.
