SOUTH BEND Orlando Cepeda Jersey , Ind. (AP) Chicago Cubs right-hander Yu Darvish lasted just one inning in his rehab start with Class A South Bend on Sunday, casting doubt on his availability for the rest of the year.Darvish, who has been sidelined by triceps and elbow injuries, shook his arm as he left the field after striking out Great Lakes Romer Cuadrado with a 95-mph fastball for the last out of the first. But he said the first inning was great.I felt real good, Darvish said through an interpreter. I didnt feel any abnormalities in that sense.When Darvish warmed up for the second, he threw six pitches and winced on each one. Miguel Amaya, who caught Darvishs rehab start for South Bend on June 25, walked to the mound and summoned manager Jimmy Gonzalez and a trainer. After a short discussion Keith Hernandez Jersey , Darvish walked to the dugout.During warmups the next inning, I felt something in there, Darvish said. Last time (in June) I did feel the same thing (but) I continued to throw. This time I stopped.Darvish, who turned 32 on Thursday, signed a $126 million, six-year contract with Chicago in February. But he has made just eight starts in his first year with the Cubs, going 1-3 with a 4.95 ERA.Darvish said he would ask for an MRI when he got back to Chicago. He wasnt sure if would miss the rest of the year.I cant really tell right now, Darvish said. It depends how I feel tomorrow. I really want to come back this season. I am going to work hard and do my best to try and come back.The Cubs are on top of the NL with a 71-52 record http://www.stlouiscardinalsteamshop.com/au...ll-ozuna-jersey , but their rotation is looking a little thin. Mike Montgomery was placed on the 10-day disabled list on Friday with left shoulder inflammation, and Tyler Chatwood has struggled in his first year with Chicago after signing a $38 million, three-year contract over the winter.The Cubs were optimistic about a possible return for Darvish after he threw about 55 pitches in a simulated game on Tuesday. But that optimism was likely wiped out by Sundays rehab appearance.Darvish allowed a first-pitch single and issued a walk, then retired three in a row. He totaled 19 pitches, 10 for strikes.In his June rehab start for South Bend, Darvish allowed one run and three hits in five innings. His fastball reached 94 mph, but he complained afterward that his arm got tired as the outing went on. MIAMI (AP) Derek Jeter signaled Thursday that Don Mattingly is expected to return next year as manager of the Miami Marlins, providing some dugout continuity for a last-place team in transition.Mattingly has one season to go on a four-year contract he signed when he joined the Marlins for the 2016 season.Is he going to be back in 2019? Jeter said. Hes under contract. Yeah.The Marlins will finish last in the NL East in Jeters first year as CEO. They began their final home series of the season Thursday with a record of 59-92 Willie McGee Jersey , giving Mattingly a three-year record of 215-259 (.454).Mattingly has said he likes the challenge of developing the Marlins many young players. He also has embraced Jeters approach to rebuilding a franchise that hasnt had a winning season since 2009, the longest streak in the majors, and hasnt been to the playoffs since 2003.The one thing you can count on with Derek is that what he says, hes going to do, Mattingly said. He talked about building the minor league system, building this thing the right way. I dont think theres one thing he talked about publicly that he hasnt backed up with his actions. You trust what he says and what hes going to do.This years poor record was expected after the Marlins traded half their starting lineup for prospects last offseason to reduce payroll and fortify a weak farm system.Even so, losing has been tough for Jeter, who played for a perennial contender when he was shortstop for the New York Yankees.Thats the ultimate judge for a team wins and losses Red Schoendienst Jersey , Jeter said. But this is a transitional year for us to learn as much as we possible could about this organization.The Marlins will finish last in the majors in attendance, and last in the NL for the 13th time in 14 years. Their crowds have averaged fewer than 10,000, the worst figure in the majors since the Montreal Expos final season in 2004.Thats something we need to improve, Jeter said. Where were starting from, the only way we can go is up.
