Rangers manager Ron Washington said Thursday that Yu Darvish (back) will be activated from the disabled list to start on Monday against the Yankees. Darvish was cleared after throwing a bullpen session Thursday, a day earlier than expected. He'll make his return without making a rehab start, so it's possible he might be a little limited in the pitch count department. Still, he's obviously a must-start in fantasy leagues.
