With Darvish struggling in the World Series, earning two losses and finishing with an ERA of 21.60, his free agent market value certainly goes down. It’s currently unknown if the Texas Rangers have plans to try to bring back to Arlington. However, there’s no doubt if they have a chance to re-sign him, they’ll definitely take it.
According to Evan Grant, Darvish said that after he was traded, he realized that Rangers fans truly cared about him and it helped him have fun to play baseball again. He even admitted that he “paid too much attention to criticism” which affected him and even affected his relationship with teammates.
