Yu Darvish's injury-plagued first season in Chicago has come to an end as the Cubs announced the right-hander will miss the rest of the season with more damage in his pitching arm.
An MRI has revealed a stress reaction in Darvish's right elbow and a triceps strain, the Cubs said Tuesday, injuries that will force him to be shut down for six weeks.
Tests were taken on Darvish after he lasted just one inning in a rehab start Sunday for Class A South Bend. He shook his arm as he left the field after striking out the final batter of the first inning with a 95 mph fastball.
