Pitcher Yu Darvish spoke to the media on Sunday, February 17th, amid Texas Rangers spring training.

Yu Darvish, Texas Rangers Pitcher:
“Overall my weight is a little bit lower than last year, probably more muscle and less fat but that’s a change that I notice but it doesn’t really translate to good performanceS so I have to pace myself and see how it goes in this spring training.”

Ron Washington, Texas Rangers Manager:
“You know I think that the issue that our guys were having with Darvish last year was just trying to get him to relax and understand that he can smile, he can have fun, he can enjoy himself, he can show emotion. And I think as we went down the stretch, not down the stretch but as we got deeper into the season I think we began to see some emotion come out of him, begin to see him smile, we begin to see him have fun and, more than that, we begin to see him execute. So, as I keep saying, the guy had a lot of issues last year but he showed how strong he is mentally because he fought through it, he never doubled himself and we, as the ones on the outside, try to let him see that we had no doubt about him also.”
