It’s not an ironclad guarantee or anything, but it’s certainly a positive sign, given the weirdly-tracking story of Yu Darvish’s recently-scratched start, forearm tightness, and closely-monitored workload.
The Cubs today announced their probable pitchers for the upcoming series in Milwaukee, and there, as he would normally be, Darvish shows up for the Saturday game.
#Cubs list their probable pitchers for #Brewers series as Quintana-Hamels-Darvish-Hendricks. Brewers are TBD.

Here’s hoping Darvish does his usual work in the run-up to the start, feels no more tightness, and is good to go for a big series.
