Ha-sung Kim’s teammate, Darvish Yu (San Diego Padres), is expected to postpone the challenge of winning 200 wins in the US and Japan until next year.
On the 29th (Korean time), MLB.com, the official homepage of the American Major League Baseball (MLB), reported that “Darvish was placed on the 15-day injured list (IL) due to right elbow inflammation.” The IL registration date was retroactively applied to the 27th.
Darvish, who recorded 8 wins and 10 losses with an ERA of 4.56 this season, was on the verge of winning 200 total wins in the US and Japan. He won 93 wins in the Nippon Professional Baseball League (NPB) from 2005 to 2011 and 103 wins while playing in the MLB from 2012. it became unclear
The season isn’t over yet, but Darvish’s appearance for the rest of the season is unclear. More than anything, it is because his team situation is not good. Currently, San Diego is running 4th in the National League West with a 62-71 winning percentage of 0.466. The wild card ranking is also 7th, behind the Maginot Line, 3rd place San Francisco Giants, by 7.5 games.

MLB.com’s AJ Casabel Padres reporter said, “Is San Diego, which is out of wild card competition, worth pushing for Darvish’s return?” . Even if a player wants to return in mid-September, long-term health is more important.” Darvish signed a six-year contract extension with San Diego in February for $108 million (about 143.2 billion won). He pointed out that if Darvish, who receives a large sum of money by 2028, worsens his injury due to excessive use, it will be a loss to the club.
According to the media, the club has yet to receive the exact results of Darvish’s examination. As soon as the results of the examination are released, it is expected that the future return schedule will be discussed. Whether or not Darvish will achieve 200 wins in the US and Japan this year is also expected to be overshadowed.
